The Batt Insulation tool draws a planar insulation fill along a line. This tool is useful for creating custom details. The insulation can be placed within a wall, where it automatically adjusts to the length of the wall.
A better method of creating insulation fills, especially for walls, is to use a tile fill, which scales and rotates within walls and slab and wall components.
To create batt insulation:
Click the Batt Insulation tool from the Detailing tool set.
Click to place the object in the drawing, and click again to set the length and rotation.
The first time you use the tool in a file, a properties dialog box opens. Set the default properties, and click OK. The properties can be edited from the Object Info palette.
The created batt insulation can be dragged into an existing wall.
Click to show/hide the parameters.
