trim and extend to corner a wall and an in-place mass (wall) problem

Hi all,

 

Hope everyone's having a productive week. I've been trying to learn to do slanted walls (in-place mass) today and get them to trim & extend and join geometry with normal walls. I uploaded a picture for reference. My problem now is how do I get to keep the brick pattern on all the exterior surfaces? I tried messing around with the Wrapping both at Inserts and at Ends but still showed missing surface patterns. I noticed however when a surface is at a vertical Work Plane, the brick pattern shows up (encircled in GREEN on reference pic) but again missing when it's at a slanted Work Plane.

 

kind regards,

Hi, thanks for the reply. I did try that but Miter is greyed out so I can't actually use it. I guess because it doesn't recognise the joining of a normally placed wall with a wall created by in-place massing. What I did is created the whole structure thru massing then picked the surfaces to apply walls. Should've done that in the first place, I know I know my bad.😅

Use Paint Tool to apply brick to ends.

Just a side note in regards to paint tool and elevation material tags. Painting does not change the actual material and if you are trying tag materials it will tag incorrectly. Unless I'm missing something.
