Knee walls

[amethyst42]

I am trying to recreate an interior room so I can design a storage system for it. This is on the second floor of my older home. The walls go up vertically partway, then angle in towards the centre of the room.

Is it possible to recreate this? I have seen the sloping wall feature, but playing with it doesn't seem to change anything, and I'm not sure what the feature is supposed to do. Help?

Please, read the roof tutorial on the Documentation page.

Thank you Hansmex. I'm following this guide but one of the parts is confusing me, and keeping me from moving forward. Could you help?
In step 2, it says:

2 - Select the top long wall, then right-click → Split walls to split the wall, then rightclick → Modify walls to change the coordinates to 600,0. Repeat for the bottom long wall with coordinates 600,500

After I split the wall, I am guessing it wants me to modify the right hand (NE) section of wall I just modified. Does it want me to modify just the starting co-ordinates, or the ending co-ordinates, or both?
Your help would be appreciated!

Sandi,

Step 2 does two things:
1 - split the walls in two sections; one section will remain unchanged in height, the other section will become sloping;
2 - move the point where the slope starts to the right; the split-point lies at the given coordinates. Look at the blue section of wall in the image below the explanation.
