hong Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Is there a way to connect two walls on the same directional line? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted June 2, 2004 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 2, 2004 They can only be manually reshaped, not automatically joined. Quote Link to comment
JR Merrick AIA Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 IN v10.2 - 10.5.1, The 3 way wall join tool does not seem to work especially if the walls are not perpendicular. Is this under developement? Also the offset tool does not work for walls after v 10.2. please advise. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted June 13, 2004 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 13, 2004 Y joins work ok in 10.5.x (there was no "v10.2" as far as I know). Can you elaborate further? Quote Link to comment
JR Merrick AIA Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Thanks for responding. I am running 10.5.1 on XP pro fully updated. I ran a test creating a new drawing and the y-join worked. I ran a test on a drawing created in 10.1.2(??). I duplicated three wall segments with a solid color fill and "removed wall breaks" from the ends of the three lines. I selected the wall join tool, "t", and the walls highlighted but a message box said "the first wall will not intersect the second wall". I tried again. This time drawing the wall segments from scratch in another drawing created in 10.2.1 with no solid fill. Same reaction"the first wall will not intersect the second wall". At other times the walls come together but the solid fills don't join. It was the repeated experience of this type of failure that caused me to draw the above conclusion. Quote Link to comment
propstuff Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Well, I'd have to agree with jr here. "Y" joins don't work for me in VW10.5. Or, rather, occasionally they work. If the walls are perpendicular it probably works, but if not, it probably wont. Either the "will not intersect" message or just no-go. N. Quote Link to comment
