Reshaping wallsReshaping wallsUse the Reshape tool in a 3D view to edit the wall height, change the elevation of wall peaks, add vertices to create peaks in an existing wall, and delete vertices that have been added. Wall peaks can also be removed with the Delete Wall Peaks command (Vectorworks Architect or Landmark required). Use the Selection tool to change the wall length. Symbols remain where placed when a wall is reshaped.
Although a Design Series product is required to create walls, existing walls can be changed using some tools available with a Fundamentals license.
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.
