Updating Face-Based Host Shapes

Building elements created by face do not update when you change the mass face. To adjust to the current size and shape of the mass face, update the element.

Note: If the element has explicit constraints on it (for example, walls with a Top Constraint set to Up to Level), then the Update to Face tool has no effect.

To update face-based host shapes

  1. In the drawing area, select the element.
  2. Click Modify | <Elements> tabModel by Face panel (Update to Face).

Walls and floors lose any sketch edits when you use the Update to Face tool.
