Regarding renderings, there is a checkbox in the Skin Wrapping dialogue about displaying in 3D. This does not actually wrap the skins in 3D but just extrudes the wall out to where the skin would be, which is usually sufficient for renderings.

Anybody know how to solutiion this problem?

Wall skins do not wrap in 3D.

What you see in plan is a symbolic representation that does not actually affect the 3D view.

The fact is, this bug has had a significant impact on my work when generating drawings, especially when creating ceiling plans (RCP) and rendering for interior design. After all, ARCHICAD doesn't have a true ceiling plan feature like REVIT。

Yes, this solves the rendering problem. However, it remains a major issue when it comes to creating section views, ceiling plans, and elevation views. I hope the official team can address this problem. It seems like this is an issue that many people encounter, so I'm curious about how they solve it. If we have to manually add hatching to each drawing afterward, it defeats the purpose of BIM.
