So I have these two walls, one needs to get shorter, the other should stay taller, but somehow they have been locked together. How does one un-associate the two. Do I have to delete one and redraw it? THis kinda happens a lot, where one thing is moved and I cant pin the other down. Most of the time thats cool, but when I need to make adustments it sometimes gets a little frustrating. Anyone know a good solution?

I'm not sure if this is the best solution, but you can pin one wall and adjust the height of the other. When error message appear, pick Remove Constraints.

Also, cutting the wall and pasting (align to same place) will remove constraints as well.

Thanks. the cutting and past to same place was the easiest. Sometimes pinning doesnt work. like a curtain wall in a thickk wall. you cant nudge one without the other moving too, even pinned.
