We would have walls disappear from plan view (allplan views), and we could only find them/select them by viewing in the 3D window.

If indeed your roofs do slope then presumably you'll have sloped (raked) walls below, the rake created with either a trim-to-roof or SEO. But the cut plane does not recognize a wall's slope. Ideally the FPCP would enable a single model to deliver a "normal" floor plan showing only walls (roof hiddden), displayed with their cut fills, and a cutaway plan showing the cut plane with
It's good that AC can figure out how to display complex, especially sloping, elements by itself. This is a huge feature for roofs, assuming your roofs slope.

Published a story with Automatic walls (with base elevation @ 9" below story) to MOD. Walls show up fine in MOD file, but disappear when MOD file is hotlinked into Master file.
