Draw walls on an angle

Choose the Running Wall button.

Select a starting point near the center of your drawing area.

On the Drawing toolbar, there is a compass to the right of the ruler check box. Select this icon and a dialog referencing a work angle is shown.



Note: XY & Ruler must be checked for work angle to work.

Change the Work Angle to 45, then click OK.

Drag the mouse up and to the left and click and hold to enter a distance of 10’6”. The distance will be along the 45-degree angle.

Note: This allows you to continue drawing walls at a consistent 90 degrees to each other but it is very important that this be used as a toggle to draw items at the appropriate angle.

When done drawing angled walls, turn off the Work Angle icon.
