Corner close tool ​

Shortcut: C

Toolbar: Modify group

Close a near-miss corner where two wall endpoints almost meet. Jodu extends the walls to their axis intersection.


Prerequisites ​

Two wall endpoints must be within 0.3 m (300 mm) and their walls must have a usable intersection. Parallel walls cannot be corner-closed.


Workflow ​

  1. Press C or choose Corner close.
  2. Move near the gap between the two endpoints.
  3. When the candidate marker appears, click to close the corner.

If no candidate appears, the endpoints are outside the threshold or the walls do not intersect.


Scenario — joining an offset envelope corner (9.0 × 7.5 m house) ​

After offsetting a wall face by 230 mm, the endpoint pair at a corner is close but not clean. Press C, move to the gap, and click the candidate. Repeat at the other corners. If a gap is larger than 300 mm, choose TrimExtend mode instead of Corner close.
