I tried replicating your situation and could not get the Profiled Wall to override the Complex Wall in Plan view, using AC17. Maybe more information about reference lines, Wall Display Options, Floor Plan Cut Plane, a section at the window will clarify.
You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.

I have tried to compile some info on my obviously flawed setup.
CW-Composite wall:1/2" gwb|2"x6" studs|1/2" ply|3/4" air space|3/4" siding|reference line inside core
CP-Complex Profile:1" air space|3 1/2" stone|limestone sill at top (variable height)|reference line edge of fdn wall
Image 1 - Walls after SEO in section - looks fine.
SEO steps:
1. Floor(op)-CW(tar)-Subtract downwards (cleans up below slab as wall extends to top of fdn wall - keeps sheathing continuous to fdn wall)
2. CW (tar)-CP(op)-Subtract (cleans up siding, merges air space)
Image 2 - Walls before SEO to show overlapping elements.
Image 3 - Plan view showing CW and windows selected
Image 3x - Plan view showing CP selected
Image 4 - Plan view as generated showing window and siding cut off
Image 5 - settings of CP
Image 6 - settings of CW
Image 7 - model view options
Thanks for your help.

Two simple walls, one 10" thick and one 4" thick. The 10" wall is taller and wider and the 4" wall is partially embedded in it. The cut plane is above the 4" wall but it still takes over the plan view. I must have a setting set that I don't know about preventing normal display.
My apologies at my ignorance.

If they are transparent (or semi-transparent) you will always see the other walls throught them regardless of the display order.
If you don't want to see the lower wall at all then set its floor plan display to 'Cut only' - but I don't think that is what you are trying to do.
Not sure if this is going to help with your original complex profile situation.
