In V8i walls could be placed by Line, Arc or Curve or using the separate 'Create Walls for Space' tool.
CONNECT Edition adds new methods:
Line and Curve operate as in V8i, Arc now has by Center or Edge options. The V8i 'Create Walls for Space' tool is consolidated into the Place By methods.
We have added From Element. This can operate with multiple selections (note manual wall clean up using the 'Connect Walls' tool is required where forms created from elements intersect/overlap/don't meet.)
One example is placing a cylinder, this can now be done by using a circle element, while the resulting cylinder will be in two halves perforations will apply to both halves if they coincide with the join between the two segments.
The Grid method will place walls on any selected grid lines, once the Grid method is chosen the selection tools will be allowed to select Grid elements by any of the available mode/methods. Obviously a floor must be active and have its grid displayed to place by grid!
