Wall cropped top and bottom

[pcrossington]

I am trying to crop both the top of a wall and the bottom of the same wall, to two different roof planes. I can do either operation separately with no problem, but when I try to do both, the entire wall disappears.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Phil

Operating system used: Mac Apple Silicon tahoe 26.5.2

Are you trying to do this with one command, or two separate commands (one 'trim to top', one 'trim to bottom')?

Do you get the same result with an SEO?

Hope that helps!

I've only tried trimming to roof, with two separate commends - "trim to top" and then "trim to bottom" (or vice-versa)

Doing it one after another should work:

There are at least 3 ways to trim a wall.

Connect > Trim to roof

Solid Element Operation

Crop to roof.

They should all work if done separately for each roof.

However the Connect > Trim to Roof will only work if the roof planes completely overlap the wall  in plan.

That is because this method uses the roof cutting body, and any wall outside of that trimming body will be discarded.

And a fourth method is to add an opening to the wall.

These can be any shape, not just a flat cut like a roof.
