Convert Wall to a Part and now the fill covers the Window.

I converted a wall to a part and the windows above a certain height in plan view now have the wall fill running through them. I've adjusted the plan region height that's currently used to display the windows but the fill still remains.

 

The windows display correctly when I toggle the Parts Visibility back to Show Original.

It's an issue with the Fixed Window Family.

Change the geometry's Visibility Settings in the Family to be Visible in Plan/RCP.  Or draw a Masking Region.

You were correct about only the Fixed Window being the issue. Selected the "When Cut in Plan/RCP option in Visibility Settings and that removed the wall fill.

 

Thanks for the advice.

Yep, you're exactly right.  One little check mark resolves entire issue.  I kind of went overboard, didn't I? he, he. 

 

Let me throw out this screenshot for others' benefit.
