I'm updating the API so that one can either enter in the actual group of the wall assembly or just the instance name of the wall assembly.

In order to regen a wall:

QuoteMedeek_Engineering_Inc_Extensions::MedeekWallPlugin::Wall::MedeekMethods.wall_regen 'instance_name'

Where the instance name is the wall assembly name (ie. RECT_WALL_ASSEMBLY_2024110823301222 ).

QuoteMedeek_Engineering_Inc_Extensions::MedeekWallPlugin::Wall::MedeekMethods.wall_regen 'RECT_WALL_ASSEMBLY_2024110823301222'


I will also be adding a new API method for moving walls.  Note that this method essentially fires up the move wall tool but without the interface or tool, a positive delta-y (float) moves the wall inward and a negative delta-y (float) moves the wall outward.

QuoteMedeek_Engineering_Inc_Extensions::MedeekWallPlugin::Wall::MedeekMethods.wall_move 'instance_name', delta-y

An example call might look like:

QuoteMedeek_Engineering_Inc_Extensions::MedeekWallPlugin::Wall::MedeekMethods.wall_move 'RECT_WALL_ASSEMBLY_2024110916480984', 48


Note that the delta-y is the amount to move in or out in inches.

Here is an example of moving a wall with the `wall_move` method using the Medeek Wall API:



There is not a lot of people using the API, at least not that I am aware of, but what this does it open up the possibility for the other Medeek extensions (and any other extension) to interact with these walls and adjust them as required.

Version 0.9.9p - 11.08.2024
- Added a "Wall" draw mode to the floor draw tool.
- Enabled "Perimeter Options" within the edit menu of the floor tool.

Tutorial 17 - Linking Floors and Walls (11:09 min.)



I apologize I got so interested and focused on the wall draw mode for floors that I completely forgot about the updates I made to allow for drawing floor coverings on slab etc...  I will drop those updates into the very next release which will probably be this weekend.

Version 0.9.9o - 11.07.2024
- Added a Material X-Offset parameter for the floor covering material.
- Added a Material Y-Offset parameter for the floor covering material.
- Added a Material Rotation parameter for the floor covering material.





I will probably add in the same offsets and rotation parameters for the underlayment as well, but I will hold off for now until it is requested.  I really want to get back onto the floor opening tool.
