  • To change your drawing units, choose Window > Model Info. In the Model Info dialog box, look in the Units panel. There's a place to change from inches to meters there.

  • wait so how do you make that opening if the two walls are not co-planar? im trying to make a rectangular doorway through a curved wall and cant figure it out

  • i love you for this video! thanks dude!

  • @CoOopAkid2008 oh stop coplaining :D

  • @aidanchopra thanks man you are a life saver

  • For the skewed wall, couldn't you have used the push/pull tool from underneath, pushing upwards into the wall until the desired height was reached? :D

  • ur vids r reallllyy helping me. thanks.

  • There was no door sill.

  • so how the fuck do u make parrele or coplainer?

  • @hitmanLis

    Here is one option:

    create a box the size of the opening you want to create

    Move the box so it intersects where you want your opening

    select the wall, go to edit, intesect, intersect with model

    then delete your box and the wall should have lines cutting it where the box was

    delete the space where you want the hole

  • how would you creat a opening in oval or arched shaped wall. it won't let me do that someone HELP
