Drawing Round Walls

Round, 2D-3D hybrid walls can be created and joined to straight walls. The Round Wall tool is essentially a combination of the Wall tool and Arc tool functions. It creates a round wall with the same features and elements as straight walls. Walls can be drawn in Top/Plan or in a 3D view. Standard walls or curtain walls can be created

Round walls preferences include all of the same parameters as straight walls.
