Walls from face

Hi. I love the ability to one-click create a roof from a face. Is it possible to do the same with walls? ie. one-click a selected face (slab) with the wall tool and produce an instant perimeter wall?

Hi KADO3D,

We normally recommend drawing the walls first then drawing the slabs, floors, roofs, etc. afterwards, which is why there are options to generate these objects from walls &/or faces. However, I’ll take it back to the dev team for further discussion.

As a heads up, we do have something coming soon that will allow multiple walls to be created at once, which will speed up the modeling process. I can’t say too much more about this just yet but stay tuned.

Thanks mate: You can tell people about create similar wall”S’

You will be happy to know we are testing this in alpha now, and it is a huge time saver. We also added the ability to select a face and deselect edges. This way, you can choose to draw walls from edges.

This leads me to an option like “draw walls from selected tagged edges “, which could enable the drawing of wall types according to the layers associated with a DWG import. Would anyone benefit from such functionality?

It’s a wonderful feature. Literally 2 right clicks for an entire enclosure ready for details. Brilliant. Thanks Andrew for entertaining it an seeing the benefits!
