a. Based on your observation, what is beneficial for connecting walls with associated levels rather than being Unconnected

• When a wall is drawn, It’s better to draw it in connect with level mode, because in the future if the height of the all walls needs to be change, then they can be changed by changing only the height of the respective levels but in unconnect walls the height should be changes individually.

b. Which option is convenient for modeling walls, By Height or By Depth?
