    Wall Snap

    I have looked in the manual and can not figure out how to prevent a wall snapping issue. I have attached two pics to hopefully explain what im trying to do. Im sure its a simple setting. Im still in X-5
    Thanks

    In x10 there was a setting in the wall DBX for this length, 'unconnected min. wall length'
    I don't see that in my X4.
    A work around would be to cut the wall at joint and change its definition, or just use the reverse wall layers tool on one portion so it does not snap back to form the 90.

    Thanks. I did not see any setting in the DBX. As for the wall break, the closest I could break the half wall from the wing wall was 11.75" which wont work. Even if I could break the wall, it would still leave a small portion in place. I have been using a poly-line solid and making it 5.5" wide (a framed 2x4 wall with Hardi and tile on both sides) and 41" high to simulate a shower half wall. See a few attached pics of my projects of this wall set back to allow for the wall cap not to over hang the end of the wing wall.

    Draw an Room Divider wall at 90d to the nib.
    Drag the Room divider wall to locate the end of the nib.

    Not sure what Glen is referring to 'room divider wall', invisible wall maybe?
    Above is what I was describing in my earlier post.

    Except it has a "0" thickness, without any of the problems involved with an invisible wall set to .5" thickness, those cause some weird problems.
