Hello trying to attach top wall to roof. 

There is possibility, throught appropriate command/procedure, to select only my wall interested?

For example, if I before mark my interested wall, can I select only these instead of the entire wall with same properties in the project?

 

Thank's

Hi,

You can save the walls that you want as a selection and then when ever you want them you can load them from your manage tab. 

or you can give the walls comment and choose them from the schedule by their comments.

Hello, 

no want to select only specified wall instead of all when wants to do something (ex. attach to the roof the wall). 

So the answer "You can save the walls that you want as a selection and then when ever you want them you can load them from your manage tab." can be correct, but I don't wants to hide in project and after load when I saved.

 

I would like to select the wall the are in the project yet.

 

If I have 2 building of 12 level and want to marks one with "first" and the other with "second", how can I do if the properties of wall are the same?

If click on a wall the click of select in view or in entire project select all the wall of 1 and other building. 

If want to select the wall of only one?

 

Thank's very much.

I'm afraid your attached image is a little confusing to me.  From what I see in that, it should be a pretty straight-forward Select->Attach->Select, perhaps using the TAB key to do a little selection cycling.

 

Do you have a better image of what you're trying to do?

 

EDIT:

You keep saying "attach roof to wall".  The software works the other way around.  You attach walls to roofs and floors.  Select the wall first -> Click "Attach Top/Base" -> Select the roof.

Maybe I'm me that I express my question badly. 

With wall with same properties, I haven't possibility to select only wall I want?

If want to copy walls in other level and want copy only some walls of walls in project, there's possibilityt to do so?

In the screenshot I have 2 buildings?

There is a possibility to classified before in identity data some walls so when I needed check only this?

In screenhshot if click a wall and after check "select only in view" or "in entire project" select all walls in project with same project. 

I want to select only walls in 1 building. 

I ask if there is possibility to do so marks wall in identity data, or something like that. 

In this porjectthe are only walls, but if there is floor or roof or are of more than 1 level, chek all the wall I want with tab is complex. 

Want to know if I can classified berore the walls so when I needed can select only walls that I classified, or there is a different procedure to arrived to the same goal. 

 

Thank's

So you want to be able to quickly select all walls for either Building 1 or Building 2?

 

Sounds like you need selection sets like @Anonymous suggested.  To do so, just pre-select the walls in one building or the other, then click Manage->Selection->Save to save the selection set.  Then, when you need it, click Manage->Selection->Load to use it.

 

Another option may be to use either Phases or Design Options, but it's not really what they're intended for.
