Hi, I'm trying to figured out how to make properly profiles for facades walls - which they have a gabs or some 3D textures
- Profile manager it's seem that can do profile only : TopSurface and after this profile I can use it for FrontSurface - Not like SideSurface
- Also tried to do this troughs NISH window object - It's do very well but it not easy to change "parametrically" ( Also it's too many windows in the wall after )
- I tested also Texture and it do very well just it's so flat and any change is not exactly and reUplouding Libraries is little pain 😕
- Solid operations tools is also working but it's annoying work with it ( hiding layers ...)
- Last what I know is using CurtainWalls but they are so heavy for projects and I want to combine with windows and doors from the wall. this tool is not my favorit too
• Is there something how to do it more simple or easier ?
• I'm looking for something solid operation tool but what it give me FrontSurface to profile my Walls
• Can I use it PARAOM for this ?
I hope you understand what I want is quite hard to explain 😇 I wanna do just Wall but with 3D texture and right now I will be very happy if I can do just some Lines / gabs in the walls but be able to applicate for whole house with possibilities to change dimension/positions of gabs

So what you are creating is a “Rain Screen”. Looks like a great start. To do it right it would vary distance from wall. Spacers (horiz and vert.) if needed, size of gap between panels, and profile of panels.

Thank you wery good solution 👍
Just one question:
- If i work in Profile manage I'm drawing Side plane of Wall.
How did you reach something vertikal or cross pannels?
