Anonymous

I want to cut out a complex profile in a wall, using Chamfers and Angled lines. I then want to tilt the wall. What is the best possible way to do this? Cheers

You would create a tilted wall first, then place a special window opening you create by making a slab you give the ID "wallhole" to, saving its 3D top view as a window.

Wacky, I know.

Cheers Dwight,
So i make the profile using the line tool then i slab it and save it as a top view. Save it as a window in objects folder! is that correct??

you will name the slab "wallhole" in its ID box - attached image - prior to the 3D view
