How to continue a wall on to a next section

Post by bernarddt »

Hi,

I'm struggling to continue a wall. I have drawn the wall on the one side of the room, then canceled the next section (by pressing escape) and now want to continue with that wall onto the other side of my room.

But when I select the "new wall" tool, and click exactly on the center of the last wall's endpoint, It just creates a new wall from that spot (not linking the 2 walls so that they join at an angle).

Is this possible to continue with a wall like this?

Thanks,
Bernard

Yes, but in the current version, a wall end can be joined to only one other wall end.

How do I join walls? (sorry if the question has been asked and answered already, I have been searching for a while but could not find the answer)

Hello Bernard,

You can't break or join walls in SH3D.

You can draw a wall, then split it, but the parts remain elastically linked. If you split a wall in two places, you can delete the middle part.

If you draw two separate wall segments, there is no way to connect them, or make one wall of them. (And if there is, I haven't been able to discover it in 3 months using SH3D.)

Keep hoping, the program gets regular updates with new features, who knows what goodies are in store for all of us.
