Editing Same Wall Parts in Different Views

Hi

 

I'd found a lot of problems with parts, but nothing like this...
For this example, I made a two layer wall and insert two section lines....

In the A Section, I can create parts and edit it... It's ok:

But in the B Section, there's a problem, the parts option isn't available:

In this case, I could make that soluction with a simple slice on the wall:

But if I have a elevation between the wall... I should to make more slices and more wall segments, always editing the other sections too...

What the best soluction in this case? Sometimes I think that stacked wall would be better, but parts seems so faster and easy to work... I hope I'm making the wrong use of this option.

Thank you so much

Check View Properties> Parts Visibility for Section B, make sure Parts are visible, either Show Parts or Show Both.

I don't understand the issue. Just tested your workflow, per your description, and I don't have any issues.  Once you create Parts, there will be no Create Parts available (e.g. it will be grayed out).  To see Parts, just toggle the Parts Visibility in the View Properties.

Show Parts, by default, is only assigned to the View where you create Parts.  So you need to change any other View from Show Originals to Show Parts in order for Parts to be accessible.

Oh my... It was so simple...

 

Thank you everyone... I would ask why isn't a default of all views, but @ToanDN answered it before I write about it...
