Wall Sloped using Heights Tutorial

In This Topic

In this tutorial we will discuss how to create sloped walls.

Watch the Video on Angled Height Walls.

The CM-Design-2 library has a selection of Wall types, including sloped and splayed walls, that can be customised to suit customer requirements. For example, the Wall - Sloped can be customised to specify a slope angle along the height of the wall or a different radius from the top to bottom of the wall.

You can also utilise these features in creating custom cabinets.

Example: Customised Cabinets

One of the first things that you will want to do with a new drawing is place the walls, as shown in the example, and Format...

We will now discuss how to slope the walls using the Standard > Heights page.

Example: Walls placed on a new drawing

This shows a Wall placed in Plan View with three edges. Use the right click menu and select the Format option to open the Property Sheet.

Heights page

Edge of Wall

The drop list menu allows you to select and control each section of the wall.

In Ortho preview mode you can see the selected section highlighted i.e. in this example section 2.

The End is the end of the last section, in this example section 3.

Sloped option

Working with sloped walls, you have to specify the start position and work from left to right.

In this example we will slope section 1 of the wall by:-

first ticking the Sloped check box and;
enter 2100mm to start at left of section which creates the slope to the next section (Top height of which is 2700mm).

Now we will slope section 2 from 2700mm to 3100mm but to do that we need to:-

select section 3 of the wall and check the Sloped check box and;
enter 3100mm to start at left of current section

The Length of each section of the wall can also be controlled on this page.
