Hi, Is there a way of changing the default wall connection (at placement time) as in the attached screen capture? I would like the default to be L connection.
TIA
Bentley, can you please help to answer this question?
In the Place Wall toolbox tick the Auto Connect option. This will mitre walls of the same type.
You also have the option to Close where your wall will "rubber band" until you place the last point.

Further to this question, is there anywhere that we can set the default join option for compound wall components?
ie, when i join a compound wall, the structure layer joins with a butted L, the furring and finish layers join with a mitred joint etc. I would like to be able to change this so that, for example, my furring layers connect with a butted L joint also, not a mitred joint.
Hi Marc, Any news on this query?
"Yes, we would like the default connection to be as in my screen capture (i.e. L Parallel)"
I wasn't able to find any reference to setting a default connection type during placement. Can you file a Service Request with support to have a new Enhancement logged? Unless of course anyone is aware of some means to do this...
And while they're at it, make top/bottom as well as sides of a LinearForm make the connection as selected - incl e.g. top of one to side of another. Don't say that wd invalidate LinearForm geometry - it's poss to achieve that effect by other longwinded route, and both Forms still report as LinearForm.
But I suppose that's another story.
