3. Select the top and bottom edges of the bounding box, which should
align with the cut planes of the floor, and use the Line Style drop-
down to change the lineweight to Medium Lines.
4. Click the Edit Type button in the Properties palette to open the
Type Properties dialog box. Because there is no defined region type
that is identical to existing materials, you need to make one. Click
Duplicate, name the new region type 00 Existing , and click OK.
5. Check to make sure these settings are in the Properties palette:
Fill Pattern: Set this field to Drafting, and choose ANSI31.
Background: Set this to Opaque.
Line Weight: Set this to 1 .
Color: Set this to Black
Click OK when you've finished.
6. Click the green check mark to complete the sketch. Your finished
filled region appears highlighted and slightly transparent.
7. Click off the region to see the finished product. The invisible line on
the left doesn't cover the cut of the wall, and a thinner line remains.
8. Highlight the filled region again and use the Nudge tool (the arrow keys
on the keyboard) to move the region over slightly to cover the remain-
der of the finished wall. The finished region looks like Figure 11.9.
