Facades Walls with panels / profiles

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

Lol I am aware, they are still being developed. 

I will make a video soon.

 

can you rotate the orientation with this? or just purely horizontal? 🤔

It is purely horizontal.

It is just turning the wall into horizontal logs.

I see, interesting feature but not much control for the sizing of grooves, if you really intend to use it for groove lines. I think for me I will still prefer using complex profiles, but good to know. 😊
