Add a wall at the beginning or end of a group

Complete the following steps to add a wall to the beginning or end of your group:

1. To access the Edit Wall Shape mode, point to any wall/construction line in the group that you wish to modify, right-click, and select Edit Wall Shape.
   
   

2. On the first or last wall/construction line of the group, point to the outside point to draw the new wall/construction line toward the outside and right-click, or the inside point to draw toward the inside and right-click.
   
   

3. In the pop-up menu, select Add. A single line and a point are displayed.
   
   

4. If necessary, in the Edit Shape ribbon, click Draw Using Back Dimension, Draw Using Center Dimension, or Draw Using Front Dimension to change the wall justification.
   
   

5. Move the point up, down, left, or right until you reach the required length and angle.
   
   Note: If you selected Draw walls using 90 degree angles in the Walls/Construction Lines pane of the Preferences dialog box, you need to right-click to change the angle.
   
   You can click the Ortho button in the Work Area toolbar to change angles in 45-degree increments.
   
   

6. Click to set the final length and angle.
   
   

7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to continue adding walls/construction lines. To stop adding walls/construction lines, press the ESC key.
   
   Note: You cannot draw walls/construction lines that overlap.

8. To cancel your changes and exit the Edit Wall Shape mode, click Discard Changes in the Edit Shape ribbon.
   To save your changes and exit the Edit Wall Shape mode, click Accept Changes in the Edit Shape ribbon.

Note:  If you use 90-degree angles to draw walls, you can click behind the last wall/construction line to stop adding a wall/construction line.
