Window sill doesn't trim wall on storey below. This is a problem where the window sill is at floor level. Is there a possible easy workaround?

Hi Laszlo,
How do I add an image without exceeding file size?

Is it a separate wall on the storey below?
If so the window in the wall above will have no effect on the wall below.
You will either have to add in a separate opening or make the wall a multi-storey wall by setting the overall height needed and setting it to d\'Display on all relevant storeys'.

Screen capture programs are the best way to take a snap-shot with an image size small enough to post.
