I use Solid Element Operation to cut the wall by a roof, it works so that the wall perfectly meets the roof.
But when I am using CI tool to add cladding on the wall, the cladding can't match the wall:
Is there someone know how to make the cladding can follow the wall?
Many thanks.

It seems the accessory is following the original dimensions of the wall and not taking into account the SEO.
I am not familiar with the CI tools, but it may pay to contact CI support and ask them about it.
Either that, or you could try selecting both the wall and the accessory object as your targets before subtracting the roof.
The roof will probably need to extend out over the accessory object as well.

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, the cladding is following the original wall height and it doesn't work by selecting the wall and roof together.

Not the wall and roof together.
Select the wall and the cladding accessory together and then SEO with the roof.
The roof will need to extend past the cladding.
Although linked to the wall, the cladding is actually a separate object.
As it is not recognising the wall SEO, you will have to apply the SEO to the cladding object as well.
