    Walls

    I have read here that walls can be made to slope. I have not yet ben able to do this. When I open a WALL dbx, there is no wall height adjustment, nor is there an ELEVATION VIEW of a wall that allows me to grab a handle and slope the wall.

    Any info on these maneuvers would be appreciated.

    I am using HD 7.09

    Sorry, Joel -- if I'm not mistaken, making walls slope is one of those "only in Pro and Chief" capabilities.

    You should be able to do it in the Cross-Section/Elevation view, as shown below.

    Oops- missed that you don't have Pro- I think Kathleen is right on this one, unfortunately.

    Ahhhhh, so there are those fabled 'handles' on the walls! Did n[t think I would ever see them. Thanks.
    I suppose I will be moving up to Pro, but not before I exhaust HD 7.09...or myself or everyone else here om the forum.
    Hmmm, I suppose if I ask enough questions about what my version CANNOT do, and I ask them often enough, everyone here will get tired of it and just send me a copy of PRO just to shut me up.

    Hang around here long enough and at least someone may offer one at a good price; that's how I got mine, after going through a lot of what you did (it was the need for manual roof tools that got me!)

    I can live with the roof issues for now...it's the wall height & sloping walls that is starting to get to me...but too soon...I still have too much to learn with this version.
