TRACE a partition

In the Build menu, go to the Walls and Partitions tab.

You have three types of walls at your disposal:

• Walls, with a default thickness of 30 cm, are used to represent load-bearing walls.
• Partitions, with a default thickness of 7 cm, are used to represent thinner walls.
• Invisible partitions are used to close an open room or create a sub-space within an existing room.

Step-by-Step to Draw a Wall or Partition

To create a wall or partition, enter the Build menu:

- 1/ Step 1: Set its thickness.

We recommend setting the thickness of the wall or partition before starting its drawing.

We offer 30 cm as the default value for walls and 7 cm for partitions, but these values are customizable. To do this, click on the numeric box in the lower right corner of the wall or partition icon, enter the desired value in centimeters, and then confirm. All walls or partitions you draw will have this thickness, but they can still be configured individually.

- 2/ Step 2: Click on the Wall or Partition icon,

A cursor in the shape of "+" will appear in the drawing area to the right of the menu. (You can only draw in 2D; you will be automatically directed to this view).

- 3/ Step 3: Place the first point,

The beginning of the wall or partition is created. Be sure to stay within the grid (workspace).

- 4/ Step 4: Indicate a direction using your mouse.

Guides are available to help you draw vertical and horizontal walls or partitions.

- 5/ Step 5: Place the next point by clicking a second time.

You can draw multiple walls or partitions in succession.

- 6/ Step 6: Confirm the drawing

To exit wall or partition editing mode:

      - press the ESCAPE key

      - or double-click after placing your last point

      - or right-click after placing your last point.
