Custom skin connection for composite walls

[TaniavH]

Provide the ability to “pull & push” an individual skin within a composite (walls especially) in plan views. This is super important when concrete is included in a composite.

The current workaround is to model all concrete separately as intersections will resort to Building Material priorities and Layer Group numbers – leaving us without full control of the extent of the concrete element within the composite. Complex profile walls are far too cumbersome as the only replacement option.

Complex profile walls with modifiers for the skin width are exactly what you need.

No, like I mentioned,  we do not want to have to use Complex Profile walls - we have tested this workflow extensively and they are far too cumbersome for the average user as well as far too time consuming. We need something fast and efficient, without the need to create profiles. Graphic representation alone makes them not a suitable option.
