How to you create cladding of any sort using Archicad 19?

Hello,
I'm trying to install a cladding system on my model using some particular BIM objects, however It seems that I'm missing something important.

I made an account in BIM Objects and I tried following these tutorials

I can't get the building to get cladded in any way with one (or 1000) clicks.
Either I get to make a single panel, a panel grid or this: http://imgur.com/lYxUN6u
Also I am lacking the Design -> Design Extras -> Accessories -> Wall accessories option.

Do you guys have any experience using cladding? Am I missing something?

EDIT: It seems that these design extras are a plugin which I can't find anywhere.

Attachment shows an example of rusticated weatherboards & board & batten (shiplap), the gutter with downpipe & corrugated roof cladding.
cadimage coverings also allow you to place the window/door facings & sills, vertical or horizontal moldings etc in one hit, nice & quick.

You could also make a "Complex Profile" and connect it to the Roof Tool.

Yea, but that tool's expensive and it lacks a student version. Thanks 😃
