floor plan windows in v17

i've never had this problem with earlier AC versions.

let's say i have a 150mm concrete tilt-up wall with a 100mm wide window frame. the 50mm gap between the edge of the tilt up & the window shouldn't be shown as the same colour as the floor-plan-cut wall.

Current Settings:
-Window Settings: i've turned on ALL fills in plan view & set them as Empty Fill, with -1 Window Background fill Pen.

-window is Symbollic in Floor Plan Display. if i changed it to Projected or Projected with Overhead, all the fills become transparent & the wall cut pen colour shows through. the window outlines are still shown, but will not be seen when printed (ie. black wall cut pen + black window outline pen = all black & no window will be seen)

-floor plan cut plane is set to default 1150, window sill is 900mm from storey level. meaning the 50mm gap shouldn't be shown as a wall-cut.

-wall settings: All Relevant Stories + Projected + Entire Element are set in the Floor Plan Display. cut fill pen is Pen 1, Black.

I've attached a screenshot of the window/wall.

Appreciate the help. Cheers.
