Wall covering not covering.

Hi,

 

Used to be that you could choose to cut the parent object with added wall covering.

Just want to add simple Bd & Batt @ bottom of exterior....but I end up as shown in attached image.

 

Sure this is easy, but couldn't seem to find an answer when searched, nor in the manual.

 

Thanks!

Merry Christmas!

Not with a wall covering, but with a Wall Material Region.

Yeah. Think you're right.

Maybe try that route.

Thanks.

I don't typically do that, because I thought the wall frame broke at the change. Guess not. Sure better that skrewing about with wall covering.

 

Thanks Tom.

The wall framing will be continuous, however if you auto-detail a section view, you will see 2 separate insulation boxes. Pony walls would be my preferred method as well, and for better board and batten appearance, I would use material regions for the battens. Generally speaking though, a board & batten material will be 'good enough' (shudder).
