Drawing walls with tapered thicknesses using the wall tool

[John Whyte]

Is there a way to draw tapered wall thicknesses in vectorworks using the wall tool.

Ive taken a screenshot of what im trying to achieve.

Hi John,

I've had a little play, the only sort of solution I have (And I hope it points you in the right direction) is in the spotlight > Architectural > Create Wall Projection

If you draw a triangle of the wall you want on top of an area of wall, select both and create the projection it can create a wall with a feature that in 2D at least looks correct. I would imagine an architect would have more to say on this. HTH

The Pillar command can be used to create odd shapes that walls will join to.

The Pillar method works fine as long as you don't need components or doors and windows in those walls.
