      any thoughts on exterior parging / waterproofing like a partial thin surface (stucco, poly, etc) added on the exterior side above grade and below grade contact? fancy would be terrain following (approximated) versus a set level per wall.

      e.g.

              Version 3.1.2 - 02.05.2023

              • Fixed a bug with metric templates that propagated from Version 3.0.8.
              • Fixed a specific bug with auto-loading wall presets.

              ! ATTENTION !
              Critical bug fix, especially for metric templates. I highly recommend upgrading to Version 3.1.2 if you have installed Version 3.0.8 or later.

              The auto-load bug has to do with enabling the auto-load preset option in the Global Settings and then subsequently deleting the preset that was selected as the default auto-load preset.

                Version 3.1.2b - 02.07.2023

                • Fixed a minor bug with the Wall Selector Matrix (Gable, Shed and Hip walls).

                This bug was due to some consolidation and general house cleaning I did with the code a few cycles back. Even when a gable wall was selected it would automatically revert to a rectangular wall. I just noticed this yesterday but the bug probably has been around for at least a month.

                      Version 3.1.5 - 03.17.2023

                      • Added a fluting number parameter for classical columns.

                      http://design.medeek.com/resources/wallplugin/images5/wall_su690_800.jpg

                      Really wasn't wanting to dig into this right now but after a quick inspection of my code I realized it would only take me a few minutes to add in this additional parameter so that one could fine tune the look of the fluting of classical columns.

                        I thought I would circle back to inclined walls since I had some questions on shed dormers over the weekend.

                        I’ve updated the wall menus to include these new parameters now I just need to create the boolean logic to modify the wall geometry accordingly:

                        https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/8/b/8be454deea2b952430a9d172ee1523e55a7b0112.jpeg

                        This feature should give the user the flexibility to modify rectangular, hip, shed or gable walls as needed when an inclined bottom plate is required.

                            Version 3.1.7 - 06.12.2023

                            • Reorganized the window draw and edit menus to include an annotations section.

                            http://design.medeek.com/resources/wallplugin/images5/wall_su697_800.jpg

                            This is a fairly minor update however I felt it necessary so that consistency is maintained with the Door menus.

                                    Version 3.1.9 - 07.12.2023

                                    • Added an "Edit Dimension" tool to the Medeek Wall Tools toolbar (editing of plan dimension only).
                                    • Enabled editing of plan dimensions for all wall types (door, window, garage, wall length).
                                    • Fixed a bug with plan dimensions (in 2D Mode).

                                    Note that this new tool can only be used to edit "plan" dimensions. Framing dimensions are currently not editable. This update was per customer request.

                                        Version 3.2.0 - 07.15.2023

                                        • Enabled editing of plan dimensions for tee intersections of all wall types.

                                        http://design.medeek.com/resources/wallplugin/images5/wall_su705_800.jpg

                                        When you modify the dimension of a tee intersection it actually invokes the plugin's "move wall" tool behind the scenes, which then moves the target wall as well as adjusts any connected walls and finally it regens the primary wall. A lot going on here.

                                        Larry Belk specifically requested this feature, and I was considering it once I began making the dimensions interactive for windows and doors. To be perfectly honest I knew it would make things a bit more complicated and involved with dimensions and their editing, however I'm glad I've managed to check this box and it seems to be working as it should.

                                        This is actually a fairly substantial upgrade to the plugin and a increase in functionality and efficiency, I will probably make a new tutorial video explaining the details shortly.

                                            Here is a todo list for the Wall Plugin, some ideas that I am currently floating:

                                            1.) Global Settings Import/Export
                                            2.) Wall Numbering Tool
                                            3.) Wall Corner Tool
                                            4.) Adding more dimensions and additional details to the framing dimension option.
                                            5.) Max. wall panel length option

                                            This list is not in any particular order. The wall numbering tool would be quite easy to implement and quite useful in my opinion. Currently one can change the wall numbers/labels however it is a bit laborious since the edit menu must be accessed for each wall panel that needs updating.
