■ Draw walls with center justification on and use an offset to simulate right or left justification. Using this method, you can draw very short segments and tight wall jogs, provided the appropriate cleanup radius is used. ■ Be precise with baselines. Use the following procedure to verify that the wall segments are inserted at a common Z elevation: 1 Freeze all layers except for the designated wall layer. 2 Select all the walls, and double-click one of them. 3 On the Properties palette, expand Basic, and expand Location. 4 Click Additional information. 5 Under Insertion Point, verify that the Z value is consistent. If *VARIES* is displayed, at least one of the walls is inserted at a different Z elevation than the other walls. Change this value to the desired elevation, and click OK. 6 Under Normal, verify that the Z value is consistent. If walls do not clean up properly, even though the Z value for the insertion point is the same for all walls on the Location tab, a wall may be at an angle. This can occur when the normal Z value varies. You can use the Properties window to see both the start and endpoint Z values of the selected walls. In the Properties window, an entry is left blank when the values vary. Assigning a Different Wall Cleanup Group Definition to Existing Walls Use this procedure to change the wall cleanup group assigned to existing walls. Assigning different cleanup groups is useful when you want to prevent 2 walls from cleaning up with each other. To create a new cleanup group, see "Cleanup Group Definitions" on page 695. 1 Select the walls to change, and double-click one of them. 2 Expand Basic, and expand General. 3 Select a cleanup group for Cleanup group definition. Specifying Cleanup for Individual Walls Use this procedure to specify the following cleanup settings for one or more walls: ■ Whether the wall cleans up with other walls ■ The cleanup group for the wall ■ Whether the graphline position corresponds to the center line of the wall or to the wall justification ■ The cleanup radius for both ends of the wall, or separate values for the start and endpoints of the wall 1 Select the walls you want to change, and double-click one of them. 2 Expand Basic, and expand General. 3 Turn wall cleanup on or off: If you want to ... Then ... turn off wall cleanup so that the walls do not clean up with select No for Cleanup automatically. If you select this option, any other walls you do not need to specify other settings. turn on wall cleanup and specify cleanup settings select Yes for Cleanup automatically, and proceed to step 4. 4 Select a cleanup group definition. The walls will clean up with other walls that also belong to the cleanup group definition that you select. 5 Expand Advanced, expand Cleanups, and expand Cleanup Radius Overrides. 6 For Graphline position, select the line that the Graph display representation uses to represent the graphline of the walls: the center line of the wall or the wall justification. 690 | Chapter 18 Walls
