Door/Window Assemblies

[andrewmga4351]

I have an assebly with the door going down to grade level and the flanking windows 30 inches up.  I used a profile to create the assebly shape. In plan you cannot see the brick below though you can see it between the assemblies I have attached a screen grab.

Try an override of the cut plane for the DWA to cut through the brick.

I couldn't get it to work, I changed the cut plane in both the dwa and the wall to no avail.  eventually broke it into two dwas and a door

The display of the DWA's can be very cantankerous.

I have some that display a sill at a door opening and whatever I try, I can't get it to turn off.

And on others I don't have this problem and the door opening shows correctly without a sill.

Go figure............

Sometimes I get so frustrated I just draw 2d linework.

Is the Below Cutplane (or something like that, this is from memory) in your active Display Representation for Walls turned on?
