what determines how a wall wraps around a column?

I'm creating a wall that crosses a collumn, and the collumn has "wrapping method" turned to "freestanding, wrapped", giving the following result:

As you can see, only some of the layers of my profile wall are wrapping around the collumn, namely the brick and the air layer (sorry for the norwegian):

The "freestanding, wrapped" method icon seems to imply that it's possible for some layers to wrap around the outside of the collumn (like the brick in my example), and other layers on the inside, which is what I hoped my insulation and gypsum would do. Why are only two of the layers wrapping around my collumn? Is it the "core outside" "core inside" layers that determine this?

Hi @Espen da Silva,

Take a look at this topic you may find an answer for your question.

I think you will find it is only the 'finish' and 'other' skins that wrap in 2D.

Your internal gypsum and insulation are set as 'core'.

In the 3D view, you will not see the skins wrap, but the column size will increase correctly and the external surface will wrap.
