Creates segments of double lines that represent wall layouts. The difference between this tool and the Double Line tools is that walls automatically heal at corners and intersections. In addition, you can attach walls to existing walls which will also heal.
- Select two points to draw the first wall segment.
Tip: Use Shift to activate Ortho mode if you want to draw horizontal and vertical walls. - Select the endpoint for the next wall segment. The corner is automatically healed; no intersection lines are shown.
- Select more wall endpoints as needed.
- To add a circular wall segment, select Arc Wall* from the local menu or Inspector Bar.
- To create the arc segment, first select the endpoint, then select a point along the circumference.
- To return to linear walls, turn off Arc Wall. Continue selecting wall endpoints. Select Finish from the local menu or Inspector Bar. If you want to close the wall, select Close from the local menu or Inspector Bar.
Any wall segment can be deleted or moved like any other object.

The Link Wall Segments (local menu) option controls whether walls become linked as they are drawn. It is on by default, but If it is turned off walls will not become linked. You can tell if a wall is linked by selecting it. Any other segments linked to that wall will be highlighted. Since walls automatically linked when you draw then in proximity this option can be useful for drawing a wall close to another wall without having them link. For example, this can be useful for drawing cubicle walls in an office setting.
