SEO- subtraction visualization in Plan view

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 17:58:18 GMT

I've created a mesh form of a trapezoid cube and after that, i used it to subtract his form from a 3d wall using the Solid elements Operator.
My problem is that the hole created from the wall is only visible in the 3d view, section and facade view, but NOT in the plan view...

Try placing an empty door or window instead to make these openings, they should show up in plan view.

Thank you Erwin for your reply, but the problem is that i really need to use complex shapes for subtracting operations, hence the choice for the mesh tool...

Unfortunately, the result of SEO operations is not visible in the 2D of most of the elements.
The only element currently that will reflect in 2D the result of SEOs is the Morph Tool. So something has started in this direction...

roof and shell tools also display this behavior. I am at a loss to understand why it is so difficult to assign these essential proprieties to all the tools.

Sorry, my bad.
Yes, Roofs and Shells also reflect in their 2D the result of SEOs.
