building a supended ceiling with stud

I want to learn how to build a suspended ceiling with metal stud framing so what when I create a section cut, I'm seeing the suspended vertical stud wall framing at x" on center instead of just a few horizontal lines depicting the ceiling material and the metal stud wall framing. Could you show me how to do that?

Did you try the curtain wall tool ? It's really the best tool to do what you want.

The example below is not finished because I have used simple profiles and panels but it will be easy to replace them with the real ones and add the suspensions as jonction elements when needed. I had first to quickly create photorealist images.
