<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>You need to create a new polygon with the same width (x)
and height (y) of the existing wall. The new polygon will only have three
vertices instead of four. Create a second wall, using the same location as the
first wall (such as “V1 of Space Polygon”) and using the new polygon. Create
another new polygon for the opposite triangle and apply that to the existing
wall.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>How would one setup a partially underground wall.  For
example, the <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>spaces in question have two wall types on one face - a
portion is <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>underground and a portion is above.  These are two
different wall <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>types and the grade slopes along the wall so the two
walls are <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>trapezoidal in shape.<o:p></o:p></p>
