Johnsdale Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 What is the best way to create brick sweeps in walls, and caps on the bottom portion of pony walls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 14 hours ago, solver said: What is a brick sweep? Eric, you KNOW I'm not the technical guy here, but in Revit, there is a tool called a "wall sweep" that allows you to add special features to walls, or other type of decorative horizontal or vertical projection to a wall in 3D or elevation view. Revit has a tutorial for on the use of the sweep tool, but the OP may be talking about something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneDavis Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Doing a web search for REVIT WALL SWEEPS, it looks as if something as simple as a chair rail is one example. And paneled wainscot is another. Methinks the OP needs to bone up on all things 2D and 3D in molding polylines. i remember coming to Chief a newbie, my head full of other software's terms, conventions, and methods. It's like learning a new language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnsdale Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 Yes, I was using a term from Revit for a row of any material such as brick soldiers that would be inserted in a wall and project out of the wall. It could also be a piece of trim on a soffit, etc. I am a new user to Chief Architect and was wanting to add a row of brick soldiers in several locations in a wall, also a trim / cap on the bottom half of a pony wall.

Evolution Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Study Molding Poly lines, and Poly Line Solids for sure. Check the Knowledge base, Training Videos and The User Manual (you can download a PDF of the manual) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
