My boss wants me to make the most outside line of a walltype to be the heaviest pen. If I go to the properties of the wall and changethe boundary it changes the boundary of the item in the wall, each boundary independentfrom the other. Such as a wall made of the following: BRICK, AIR SPACE, SHEATHING,STUD AND GYPSUM BOARD.  In this wall theexterior face of the brick and gypsum board need to be heavy.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Change In Detail Of Wall Type

Jun 20, 2012

Since yesterday, when I try to draw any of our custom wall types all I get is a standard wall type image (rectangle only).  None of the detail or component colors are displayed. When I start creating the new wall, the detail displays until I click at the end of the wall, then the detail disappears.  When I ID an existing wall and a newly created rectangle the properties all match.  I can copy and mirror existing wall and the correct display is retained.  All of the existing walls in the drawing display and print correctly. The newly created wall print only the rectangle.  Medium detail settings are in place.  This has to be a local setting problem on my computer because others in the office can draw the same new wall in the same drawing and get all of the detail.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Walls Only Display Standard Wall Type?

Oct 24, 2013

I'm trying to make walls that are not just the Standard type (Brick -4 Brick -4 Furring for example) but when I make a wall of this type, it displays as a simple rectangle, instead of with the unique hatch patterns of that wall type...In the properties palette, the wall type is Standard, even though I've chosen a more specific wall type.  How do I make walls that aren't Standard?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Wall Style Creation (Window To Cut Only One Portion Of Wall)

Dec 7, 2011

I'm attempting to create a wall style that has 2 components, a framed wall and a brick veneer.  What I would like to do is have this wall react a certain way when I insert a window.  Basically, I don't want the window to cut into the brick veneer, only the framing.

I have attached my attempt so far, and I have not figured out how to get the window to only cut the framed portion.

Revit :: How To Get Wall Sweep Set Up In Type / Structure Properties To Wall Profile Has Changed

Apr 12, 2012

Any way to get a wall sweep that's set up in the type/structure properties to follow a wall if that walls profile has changed.  For example, in the image below, I've split the wall and adjusted it's profile to create some cheesy angled parapet.  How do i get my wall cap to follow along?  I thought splitting it and changing it's height would work, but no.  And if I change the profile without splitting the wall the wall cap just runs right through the wall, as if the profiel was never even changed.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Snapping To Wall End

Apr 19, 2012

I used to be able to snap to the end of the linework that form the visual end or intersection of walls while grip dragging a wall of one style to another.  For example, using a wallstyle as a countertop, I'd be able to drag it to the corner of a room and use object snap to the intersection.  In ACA 2012, the object snap defaults to the justification plane of the wall even if that's not where the intersection snap is desired.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Wall Grips / Osnap

Mar 27, 2013

I quite often like to use the wall grips to adjust the length of a wall.  This works really well accept for the occasional situation were I want to snap to the face of another wall rather than the  justification line.  I know that I can snap to the face of a wall rather than the justification line because I have some files that it works fine in and other files that it does not work in.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Wall Tool Not Allowed?

May 16, 2012

I did a drawing in ACA2011 sent it to my remote office where I have ACLT for mac 2013 (trial).  Worked on the file,

had to explode the couple of walls I was editing, saved as 2011 or 2010 file.

When I open the file in ACA2011 I can not execute the wall tool.  This is the message received:

Command: _AecWallAdd Command not allowed because drawing contains objects from a newer version of this application.

The new objects would be lines.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Moving Doors Within Wall?

May 24, 2012

have trouble moving doors or windows within a wall?

I am trying to move a door so that the door is flush with a face of wall. The prompts in acad do not match the instructions. 

For instance;  select door, okay.  then from anchor panel select 'reposition within wall', okay a red line appears and prompt to 'select position on the opening'.  okay so i click the face or side of door jamb then select a reference point.  (guide says select point to measure to) and on and on.  Door never moves.

it should be; select door, select reposition in wall, select reference point (interior, exterior, midpoint), select the desired location.  Done. 

Instead it is select this that and the other , measure from here, select, click.click click.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Wall Style Hatch

Apr 12, 2012

I have two created wall styles, one is a stud wall with gyp bd each side, the other is a cmu wall with gyp bd each side. I want to use a solid hatch which I am able to do but the problem is one wall style the stud hatch is HATCH 1 and in the other wall style the CMU hatch is HATCH 2. It seems as though the two wall styles are tied together some how for if I turn on / off a hatch in one of the wall styles it turns on / off the hatch in the other wall style.

Feb 9, 2011

I have a curtain wall I need to make, but I need it to be curve on elevation. Its an arch. I can do it on sketchup but I need autocad precision to establish the modules. I have this division settings, horizontal 3.111 vertical 3.559m.

The profile arch has a 40.062m radius. 27.741 arc length. and a total angle of 39.673.  

My question is, how can I bend the curtain wall??? I can make a flat curtain wall to follow my referenced base curve, but I need tu curve it in elevation.  Here is a demo view from sketchup.What i'm trying to do is the coloured face.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Wall Corner's With Timbers

Aug 6, 2012

I'm trying to draw a wall in plan that has Wood Timbers in the corner.  The problem im having is that if i use a Body Modifier it puts dark heavy lines within the wall.  And Plan modifiers don't seem to be working.  I tried to use an interference condition and that also did not do the trick.

I tried to force a cleanup and that did not work either.
