Creating a new 3D boundary for the internal walls

“

- [Instructor] We're still in our zero zero ground floor boundaries drawing and what we're going to do now is create a boundary polyline for our separate internal walls. Now why would we create a boundary polyline that's separate for our internal walls? Well if you think about the construction of an external wall and an internal wall that heights of those walls may be different. And if you're in a 3D environment, like you will be in 3D Studio Max, you might want to alter those heights accordingly. You might want to bring the internal wall up to a lower level than the external wall. There might be a suspended ceiling, for example. Something like that. So you've got to make sure that all of your individual boundary polylines are on individual layers but more importantly have their own individual boundary polylines as well. That way it makes your transition into 3D Studio Max easier. You've got a different object.…
