Blue control arrows when border is selected
■ To split a layer or region vertically, highlight and select a horizontal boundary. That boundary can be
the outside boundary, or an inside boundary created if you previously split horizontally.

TIP It is helpful to zoom in on the outer horizontal boundary to split it vertically.
Merge Region Command
When editing vertically compound walls , the Merge Region command merges wall regions together
horizontally or vertically into new regions. Highlight a border between regions and click to merge them.
When you merge regions, the position of the cursor when you highlight a border determines which material
prevails after the merge.
The material from the right region prevails when you merge
The material from the left region prevails when you merge
Assign Layers Command
When editing vertically compound walls , the Assign Layers command assigns a row to a layer or region. (It
assigns the number, material, and function of that row.)
It is more useful to assign layers to regions vertically, rather than horizontally. For example, you might split
finish layer 1 into several regions. Then you could assign another finish row to some of those regions and
create an alternating pattern, such as brick over concrete.
