Drawing the Interior Walls

Define the interior walls of the building.

  1. Verify that the X/Y window is active, or activate it by clicking in it.
    The X/Y symbol in the top-left of the window is red when the window is active.
  2. Create the interior walls in the X/Y window using one of the following workflows:
    • On the Objects menu, click Enter Basic Objects > Enter Orthogonal Object.
    • On the Objects toolbar, click the Add Objects Orthogonal icon.
    • Press F9 to use the keyboard shortcut.
    Note: This tool creates a rectangle that is right-angled to the current projection plane. The rectangle is a line in the 2D view.
  3. Click twice in the X/Y window to specify the start point of the interior wall.
  4. Click again to specify the end point of the interior wall.

Note: The interior walls are created and consist of brick with a height of 3m.
