The appearing Openings’ Position dialog box allows you to choose how to handle the openings’ new position in the curved Wall:

Keep distance: This option will ensure that the openings’ distance from the nearest Wall end remains unchanged. (Openings are measured from their center point.)

Note: The Wall segment that you click to curve will be the segment that is stretched.

Keep proportion: This option will keep constant the position of the openings relative to the Wall length.
