MartyBoyd Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Hi, I break my wall using break tool but when I move it it reconnects with the wall forming only one wall instead of two. Is this possible or do I need to always rebreak my wall? X12 on Windows 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPDesign Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Hi, You need to make the wall different in some way, Select the wall and open the wall dbx after you break it. go to the wall type category on the left of your screen. in the middle of the screen click "define" make a copy of the wall. Change the plan view fill of the framing layer to visually differentiate it from you other wall type. Now you wall will not rejoin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgardner Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 A trick if you are breaking it to make a change differently than above is to either change the direction of one of the walls temporarily or hit the gable conversion for that wall in the edit bar. That will give it a different definition. Just remember to make the adjustments back at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandilocks Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I change the roof type for one of the broken segments. Since I manually draw all of my roofs it's not an issue. I just tell it that one is a hip roof and one has a gable roof and they won't reconnect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 In X14 Chief also added a Default setting under Walls>General Wall so we could toggle off Auto Merge Collinear Walls. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
