auto brick sill malfunction

Anonymous

I have inserted a window into a complex wall section. After using the wall type parameter "brick veneer wall" the automatic brick sill does not display properly in section. Is there a bug in the tool or have I missed a setting?

Select the window and open its settings box (ctrl/cmdT).
You need to correctly choose the type of wall it is placed in as 'Brick Veneer Wall"

Again, the wall type is specified as "Brick Veneer Wall". This is what allowed the sloped brick sill to be automatically generated by the window opening. However, the sill does not display properly as you can see in the image of the cut section.
