wall surfaces on wrong side

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi all, a new one just popped up for me - outside wall surfaces and inside wall surfaces are reversed. Surfaces for slabs, beams, and roofs all show on the proper surface. Thoughts?

You may need to rearrange the order of the composites in your wall to match how you place your reference line in the model.
Typically people put the reference line on the exterior side of an exterior wall, but there are times when the reverse is done so the reference line is on the inside face.

Composites are arranged so that the top material in the list is the reference side of the wall.
