Round walls
Many people have asked for round walls.
I tried to make a round wall with short straight walls, but there's a little bug in the software (?).
I made it with 50 cm walls, each wall rotated 165 degrees. As you can see there are two openings in the wall. If you select the wall and make it thicker, the openings become larger. The error is consistent: if I make the same wall using 195 degree rotation, the same openings appear.

I'm using SH3D 2.1 on a Ubuntu system.

Re: Round walls
This is clearly a bug and I fixed it. The bug fix will be available in the next version.
This happens when the abscissa (X) of start and end points of a wall are almost the same. In fact, they even appear equal in wall modification dialog, but are different in memory. As you can see in the file attached to this message, this can be fixed in the current version with a copy/paste of the X value of start point in the X value of end point in the wall dialog.

Thank you for your help. smile
