Reshaping Walls

Use the Reshape tool in a 3D view to edit the wall height, change the elevation of wall peaks, add vertices to create peaks in a wall, and delete vertices that have been added. Wall peaks can also be removed with the Delete Wall Peaks command. Use the Selection tool to change the wall length. Symbols remain where placed when a wall is reshaped.

In the following situations, the Reshape tool displays 2D Reshape modes; the vertices at either end of the wall can be moved, to change the wall length and/or location. See 2D Reshape Modes.

    In Top/Plan view

    When multiple walls are selected

    When a wall and other objects are selected

    When a marquee has been drawn

In any 3D view, when only a single wall is selected, the Reshape tool has three modes available.
