check under Extras-Accesories-Wall Extras.

If that does not help you, you can read the following post

Although there is some detail to work out in the final model, you create tilted walls by drawing a thickened wall. Use the profiler add-on to create a shape to subtract from the wall using the solid element operations.

This is exactelly what I want for this 3d model rendering, but I didn't get the idea of step 2. Could you tell me where can I find the profiler to add-on to create a shape to subtract? Thank you for your time and help

my boss doesn't want me to attach picture on the website, so I have to delete the picture from here. I am sorry if this is the problem.

You can load it by using your Add-On Manager located in the tools menu. When that opens, go to Edit list of available add-ons >> click on search for more add-ons. The Profiler Add-on is located in the goodies folder of your ArchiCAD application.

There is another string in the Working in ArchiCAD forum http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=2694 that has some further discussion on tilted walls. If you haven't checked it out, it would be worth your while as there are some issues associated with tilted walls including plan view representation, window and door frames....

HTH,

Happy Friday!

Is Add-On Manager can find in ArchiCAD 7.0? Because I couldn't find that option.
