Custom layers can be enabled in the global settings which allow various wall, window and door components to be placed on specific layers.Īuto assignment of materials colors and textures are available as an option within the "Materials" and "Sheathing" tabs of the global settings. This level of automation provides a design tool which should eliminate the need for manual modifications to the model, which are both time consuming and can be prone to user error. Wall framing and other options are automatically re-calculated and re-drawn as required. Once a wall panel is created it can be moved while at the same time remaining "glued" to other adjacent wall panels. If the auto-corner configuration is enabled within the global settings the wall panels will automatically form inside or outside corners based on the angles between the wall panels. When the polyline mode is chosen each point defines both a wall panel end point and the next wall panels start point. When the rectangular wall tool is selected and the designer chooses the line mode the wall is then defined by selecting two points which form the start and end of the wall panel. The extension allows the user to create wall panels singularily or in a polyline mode. Additional wall types, windows and doors are in the process of being added on a weekly basis.Īdvanced options and features such as crown moulding, baseboard, chair rails and wainscoting are also under development.
