Windows cutting composite walls

JKL
Contributor

For some reason, these windows, in these walls, are cutting through the composite wall and showing the inside of the wall. I've injected windows that are working correctly into the windows, deleted them, injected the wall, deleted the wall. All the things I can think of. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you!

Might it have something to do with your windows reveal type? And the related Wall Opening settings?

@JKL Can you identify the library part and your version of AC including country?

It may just be a custom object which is affecting the opening.

@JKL This will be one for US users but what is the Library Part Name e.g. "Double Sash Window 24"?

Looks like it! I changed from "stud wall w/siding" to "brick veneer" and it allowed me to change the reveal depth which was the issue I think, and now they look great. Thank you!
