Sloping Terrain Block

There's no command… but there is a workaround.

One way is to use the mesh to cut the wall top by duplicating the mesh, elevating it, converting it to thin roof elements because meshes can't cut, and trimming the walls "trim to roof"

2: raise duplicate to height of wall
3: convert to thin roof
4: trim walls to roof.

Use SEO and subtract the terrain mesh from the wall.

So you meant to cut the bottom, not the top?

Oh. Now I'm embarrassed that I posted that elaborate trim-top-of-walls-to-match-terrain.

But I did learn something - that folded paper terrain doesn't SEO like I thought - why it needs to be fractured into roofs. [rooves?]
