the midpoint of the wall.
From Wall Midpoint
the vertex that is one position closer to the wall start point than the
vertex you are adding or moving.
From Previous Point
the vertex that is one position closer to the wall endpoint than the
vertex you are adding or moving.
From Next Point
the midpoint of the distance between the current vertex and the
vertex that is one position closer to the wall endpoint.
From Midpoint of Neighbors
The following table identifies the locations you can specify for the vertical offset of a vertex. You can enter a negative
distance for the vertical offset to position a vertex toward the ground.

the base height of the wall.
From Wall Base Height
the vertex that is one position closer to the wall endpoint than the
vertex you are adding or moving.
From Next Point.
the vertex that is one position closer to the wall start point than the
vertex you are adding or moving.
From Previous Point
the baseline of the wall.

Specifying the Width and Edge Offset of a Wall Component
You can specify the width and edge offset of a wall component by entering values, creating a component with a fixed
width and offset. You can also specify a formula for determining these values. The formula can include a value for Base
Width. By including the Base Width variable in the formula, you can specify the width of the wall when you add or
edit walls of this style to a drawing.
Specifying a formula to determine component width or edge offset
To calculate the edge offset or the width based on the base width, select Base Width and select an operator and an
operand:
■
If you select Base Width for any component, you can enter a width for walls of this style when you add or modify
them in a drawing.
■
If all components in the wall style use absolute values, you cannot change the width of individual walls of this
style when you add or modify them.
