Inserting Window Into Stacked Walls

Not applicable


Hello! I've created a wall with two different types of cladding with a separation between. I made this wall by placed three walls with different attributes on top of one another. When I insert a window, it only cuts through the bottom wall. Is there a different way to create this type of wall or a setting somewhere that will allow me to insert a window that looks correct in 3D?

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

Why you don't use composites to do this? or use complex profiles probably.

PD: I can't see the image.

Thanks for your quick response. I fixed the image, now it's just oversized.
Don't composites only stack horizontally? I would need them to work vertically.

I'll look into using complex profiles.

You either need to use a complex profile wall or start placing empty openings in the other walls.
A window can only belong to one wall so it will only cut an opening in that wall.
