To Attach a Screen or Eave to a Wall after the Screen or Eave has been created, you  use the Attach Drawing-Mode, accessed on the Left Toolbar or via keyboard shortcut ⌨ A. There are three several scenarios that Attach Drawing-Mode works within:

1. If no Screens, Eaves or Walls are Pre-Selected, the Attach Drawing-Mode begins with the user needing to 🖱 click the Wall or Screen or Eave they would like to connect & then 🖱 clicking the 2nd object to complete the Connection.

2. If any Eaves, Screens or Walls are Pre-Selected prior to entering attach-mode, then these objects begin in attach-mode with their initial connection lines, just requiring the final 🖱 click to Connect to the desired object.

3. Alternatively, if Eaves, Screens and Walls are all Pre-Selected prior to entering Attach Drawing-Mode, when the Attach Mode button or keyboard shortcut is pressed, all selected Eaves & Screens will Connect to all selected Walls.

4. You can 🖱 Right-Click on a Wall or Screen and select the Context Menu Action Connect to Wall / Screen which will enter Attach Drawing-Mode for the Selected Object.
