Create walls from Sketch?

[Roy_043]

You mean the wall is a cube 2 m by 5 m without top and bottom, right?

Well, let's be precise: the base is 2mx5m, the wall is centered and has a width of 200mm, so the overall dimensions in plan are 2.2X5.2m.

you are using an early V0.19 dev version that is almost 10,000 commits behind.

I am using a version that comes with my OS and I prefer to stick with it for now.

I use AppImage on Fedora, just download that latest 0.19 release or latest 0.20 weekly build and run it, no need to alter your OS provided installation.

Good luck

Apparently I've got the same problem

But you are using an early V0.19 dev version that is almost 10,000 commits behind.

Actually, there are only 50 commits between 0.19.1 and git commit 08c3a6b3e709 in src/Mod/Arch and I have found the porblem. It wasn't hard because I created it myself, trying to solve another one. I don't know yet how to fix both, but at least they are diagnosed. Thank you for your help.

Thanks .hunting and fixing the bugs

I use sketch also and trying to develop some tools to assist.

Before I could return to my pc to see your file, I guess you have 3 lines connected at 1 point in your sketch. Just do not do that.

Why?

I'd like too to use Sketcher to model the planfoor and then create the walls, but I have some trouble to have different thickness of the wall with sketch and to have loops closed; do you use different sketches or just one master sketch?

It's there any thread or official method/tutorial to design a Floorplan with Sketcher?

[EDIT] ok nevermind, I found this thread to study :

Currently having 3 lines connected to 1 point may have unexpected ArchWall result at the moment due to the underlying mechanism.

Having different wall Thickness (and Align) for each edge / Wall Segment of a 'complex' Sketch is bit tricky. Have a look at ArchSketch + ArchWall ( Multiple Width / Individual Align ) = Building Layout Object if you want to try.

Good luck

I've seen; I'm trying too to find some solid worflow using sketches for floorplan and make then walls, but as you said it's a bit tricky (at least not solid at all).

I get used to Sketches through building a few models, and using it extensively, with the help of a few features of an experimental add-on.

Maybe you can separately post your model and problems to see if other have a better workflow.

Good luck
