You can draw walls by simply pointing and clicking with your mouse. If you have created a foundation, you can draw your ground floor exterior walls by simply tracing the foundation walls.
A floor is automatically inserted when you create a closed wall layout. You can change the floor properties after it has been inserted if you want.
Once you’ve created your exterior walls, you can start drawing interior walls. Walls snap to other walls automatically, creating clean corners and intersections. As you create rooms in your home, the floor is split into separate floors that you can edit individually.
To draw walls:
Make sure the current location is the location you want to insert walls on.
Select Insert
> Walls, or click the Walls button on the Building toolbar.
In the catalog, select the wall type you want to insert. You can choose from Exterior, Interior or Foundation wall types.
Select a start point for the first wall.
Move your cursor in the direction you want your wall to run. Its length is shown as you draw the wall.
Note: By default, drawing is constrained to 15º angles. To release this constraint, turn off your Angle Snap.
When the wall is the length you want, click to set its endpoint.
To add another wall to the one you have just drawn, move the mouse in the direction you want the new wall to run. When it is the right length, click to set its endpoint.
When you are finished drawing walls, right-click and select Finish.
