Walls

All Vectorworks products have tools and commands to design straight and round walls. Some of the tools and commands in the Vectorworks Design Series products are similar to those available in the Vectorworks Fundamentals product, but with extended capabilities required for architectural design. Walls can be drawn using the Wall tool and Round Wall tool, or created automatically from objects that exist in the drawing, including spaces, polygons, and shapes. The Vectorworks Design Series products also include the ability to create curtain walls.
