Description
The MergeWalls tool fuses two or more selected Arch Walls.
Usage
- Select two or more walls. The walls must have the same height, width and alignment.
- Press the button, or use the Arch → Utilities → Merge Walls from the top menu.
Notes
- Arch Add can merge walls even if they have different heights, widths and alignments.
Scripting
See also: Arch API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.
This tool can be used in macros and from the Python console by using the following function:
base = joinWalls(walls, delete=False)
Example:
import FreeCAD, Draft, Arch
p1 = FreeCAD.Vector(0, 0, 0)
p2 = FreeCAD.Vector(2000, 0, 0)
baseline = Draft.makeLine(p1, p2)
Wall1 = Arch.makeWall(baseline, length=None, width=150, height=2000)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
Wall2 = Arch.makeWall(None, length=2000, width=200, height=1000)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
base = Arch.joinWalls([Wall1, Wall2])
