Video of section wall components in VectorWorks 13?

I couldn't find anything on section wall components except this image:

One of those little movies would be quite good, or some screen shots.

(Katie, is that your voice in the demos?)

Does what it says on the tin. Create a section viewport and you can choose to display the components within the wall. Note that this is only for section viewports so users of Fundamentals don't get this.

Yeah but what do they actually look like in the working environment? Do they just look like walls from plan view (which is fine with me) or do they show individual parts like the image seems to suggest, which would blow me away.

They show walls with components as shown in plan view unless you section through an area where there are more than one type of wall (eg ground floor brick course with cladding above) in which case it will section the components it finds. If you mean (as I think) that will it show things like insulation and the like then no, those are manually drawn on as a viewport annotation as in 12.

Thanks.
