Problem with wall accessories

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello!
I adden an add-on (Wall Accessories) on my Archicad 15. Now I want to make a facade to the outside of the walls with "Moldings and Panels".
But the problem is that I cannot change the height which the panel ends and starts. It automatically places itself on some height and I have not found how I can change this.

Picture can be found here:

Also another problem is that the panel overlaps windows. I have not yet foun a solution to this problem either.

So please help me and point out how I can solve my problem.

Thank you!

1. Select the wall
2. Select the "Wall accessories" command (from menu: Design>Design extras>Accessories>)
3. Choose the molding object and set parameters

If you do all this with the related WALL element still selected, the accessory will be tied to that wall, his position, his height and his openings.

Thank you for your answer! It helped me out.

But now i came across of another problem.

Problem is with crowns. I found a thread about this problem but there I could not found a proper answer.

When I choose crown layout for example 20 then everything is okay:

But when I want to remove crown and keep the molding like that, this will happen with base and chair:

Also when I use different crown layout which does not extend as much from the wall as layout 20 then the problem occurs as well:

I will be very thankful if you could help me figure out this problem.

I also downloaded hotfixes but it stayed the same.
