Interface the walkway to fit with the object's contours

[seagull25]

I am learning the Architectural Home Designer 9 software but get into the problem of how to make (intergrate) the walkway interface with the contour of other objects (round, corner, or slab..) I do not see the software allow us to add points so we could not adjust the layout properly.
My question is: How you handle this problem? How to control it? where in the reference manual talked about this.

My export picture show you 3 circles to represent the problems I am talking about. If you requested then I will attache the plan.

As a general rule, the Terrain Sidewalk tool should connect to other sidewalks to form nicely connected pathways. See attached image. There is no way to connect sidewalks to other types of objects, such as walls. Also you can't modify the end of a sidewalk to make it form a shape such as a curve. For these situations you might get better results using Terrain Feature which can be made to be any arbitrary shape.

Hi Dermot,
I am glade to have a pro to involve. I agreed with you that walkway can intergrate well to each other but my experiment show me that I can also intergrate walk way with the curve wall or a slab by just reduce the walway to a negative value so it will be under neat of other object. From outside look like I made the walkway intergrate smoothly with the curve or square corner.
Please see my orriginal question and please see my solution picture attached.

What do you think? what is the draw back if I approach the problem this way?

The tool that Dermot describes has some good information on it in this Help Database article - http://www.homedesignersoftware.com/...?faqNumber=864
