Solid substraction from wall objects

[Phileas]

Hey everyone,

 

I have a problem: whenever I make a solid substraction from a wall using the AEC menu, the wall then stops showing it's components in a section view, making it look like a hollow object. Is there a way to correct this?

When you do a solids operation on a wall it technically is no longer a wall, but a solids object instead. I would recommend making a symbol that contains a wall hole component and using it to subtract from the wall. It would give you direct control over how things look in top/plan view.

 

If you post an example object we could show you how to achieve what you're looking for.
