Hi. I'm wondering if there is a way to add a pocket to the bottom of the frame? I'm trying to cut the frame around the base plates of structural columns, but I can't figure out how to do it. Hopefully someone can help

Try the following:

Step 1: Draw your a standard wall between the columns




Step 2: Use the Split Point Tool to add two split points on the edge of the base


Step 3: Use the Stretch Icon found in the wall module to pull the yellow stretch points on the inside edge of the bottom split points towards the bottom of the base.
