Shapes can also be used to pierce work plans, to make holes in a wall (for example for a frame)...
You can also find out the solution to placing work plans with a free placement dishwasher. Watch our tutorial

''<big>Retrieving the shape from an active object</big>'''

1. Activate the object that you wish to retrieve the shape from. 

2. Select '''Object | Shape'''. 

In the case of an ordinary article, the retrieved shape is the selection polygon in top view and the encolosing rectangle in elevation view. 
In the case of a flat or linear article, the retrieved shape or shapes will be those used to build them. 
In the case of a wall belonging to a series of linked walls, the retrieced shape is the one that describes the trajectory of the series of linked walls. 


''<big>Retrieving a shape from selected objects</big>'''

1. Select the objects that you wish to retrieve shapes from. 

2. Select '''Shape | Generate | From selection'''. 


''<big>Generating vertical shapes from the active shape (extrusion)</big>'''

1. If there are several shapes in the scene, select one of the dots of the shape that you want to extrude to make sure that it is the active shape. 

2. Select '''Shape | Generate | Vertical shapes'''. The '''Low''' text box refers to the lowest point of the generated vertical shapes, the '''High''' text box refers to the height of the generated vertical shapes and the '''Overhang''' text box refers to the thickness of the flat objects that are going to be placed in the shapes (tiling for example). If a value different from zero is given for the overhang, InSitu will shorten some of the shape's lines before performing the extrusion to make sure that there the flat articles placed on the vertical shapes issued from the extrusion do not hit each other.  

3. Enter the setting you want in the text boxes and confirm.

When the operation is finished, a rectangular, vertical shape will be generated for each horizontal line of the active shape.
