Steps to Draw an Internal Wall

Step 1: Draw Wall tool

Step 3: Switch the Drawing Line Position (Press S)

  • While actively drawing a wall, press the S key on your keyboard to switch the position of draw line starting point: center, left, or right.
    • Center – The reference line runs along the middle of the wall thickness.

  • Click to define the arc's path. A circular preview will appear to guide the arc shape.


Notes
