Edit Objec t rollout
This rollout appears when you select a wall object
at the object level; other rollouts, discussed below
appear at the different sub-object levels.
Attach—Attaches another wall in a viewport to the
selected wall by a single pick. The object you attach
must also be a wall. 3ds Max applies the material
of t he s elected wall to the wall being attached.
Attach Multiple—Attaches other walls in a viewport
to the selected wall. Click this button to open the
Attach Multiple dialog, which lists all the other
wall objects in the scene. Select the walls you want
to attach from the list and click the A ttach button.
3ds Max applies the material of the selected wall to
the walls being attached.

Edit Vertex rollout
Appears at the Vertex sub-object level. Each wall
segment has two vertices; one in each bottom
corner. In wireframe views, wall vertices appear as
+ symbols. Connected segm ents in the same wall
object each share a vertex. Moving a wall vertex
has the effect of scaling attached segm ents as well
as rotating them about their other vertices. You
cannot rotate or scale wall vertices.
Co nnect—Lets you connect any two vertices,
creating a new linear segment between the ver t ices.
Click this button, click a vertex, and then click a
second vertex on a different segment. When you

vertex.

and then click the Break button. The segments
