Hello, everyone.

I'm playing with vw14 and I'm meeting a problem.

I'd like to create a wall revolved with respect to its backing.

to better explain, a solution would go into the side view, draw a rotated rectangle, for example of 45 degrees respect the horizon and then extrude it.

another solution would be to draw a wall and then use the taper face command to fold the faces of the beginning and end of the wall.

In both cases at the end I no longer have a wall object but a generic solid, with everything that follows. for example I lose the fillings of the cut object in top/plan view.

So the question is: how do I make a wall of this type, keeping a wall object with its beautiful fillers?

Incidentally I'm making executive plans in scale 1:50, so besides model 3d I need decent plans

for those who know archicad, with the latter a solution would be to use a wall and then with the operator between solids, to remove falde or morph objects from the wall object

Thank you.

Hi.
the wall can be shaped with the tool change/reshape.
I'm not very clear about the kind of change you're planning to do but adding points you can get various inclinations.
I do.

thank you for the answer

using this tool I can make peaks above (and now also below), but I can't move the bass.. In practice I have to make a wall like this

Thank you.
 
I managed: I tried to move the base bass to the inside, instead

1- add an average point
2- move up/down the outer edge

Yes, exactly, you have to understand first where to add the points, then you can get quite faithfully the desired shape.

always on the same wall...
in the end it is better to use a primitive and make a solid (the wall is complicated. . . )

the question then is whether or not you can add a filling (color or hatch or....) to a generic solid in top/plan view

Thank you.

if you build a solid you lose the advantages of the object of the wall; then to insert doors or windows or other type of washing you will need to use Boolean operations instead of using equivalent parametric objects.
to answer your question, instead, you have to convert your solid into autohybrid object, in this way it is automatically added the 2d instance, visible in top/plan.
I do.
