Hi All,

Can any please tell me how to create a feature wall/fascia panel. It needs to attach to the existing wall & support a framework of angled panels. Please see attached sketch. I tried using the curtin wall but I am relatively new user and couldn't get it do as I wanted.

I will show you what I mean. The bit on the right is my attempt at a curtin wall, the 'yellow' is a beam with the correct shaped profile and a material applied to make it look right. It is just the squares need to be different colours and I can't seen to stop the beam drawing it as thick as it is high. It only needs to be 90mm w

I think the Curtain Wall tool is indeed the best tool for this job.
Try to do it with the Curtain Wall.
Then when you get stuck, post the problem with screenshots and we will try to help you with it.

I sorted it out. It was the rotated angles of the panels which was getting to me. I was missing the step which changed the 3d view to the 'scheme' and then getting stone walled. I am much happier with the wall now.
Cheers
