x18 fill based layers

I know we got new fill based layers in x18 but is this possible without having to draw a bunch of cad boxes with fill? Not the end of the world, but the poche fill just doesn't have enough control or customization. Like some others, I want my sections to be clean and to have the whole attic space/roof space as a solid fill. Is this now possible with fill based layers or is it still more cad boxes/work- arounds?

It is not possible yet, but it can be sped up a bit. You can assign that fill to the structure layer of the floor and roof and ceiling assemblies. Then, when you auto-detail a section view, you can select multiple polylines, merge them, and quickly drag the edges to cover the attic portions.

Thank you for the info, that will speed it up. This was what I was really looking forward to, super bummed to hear this isn't possible yet. I sort of figured this was going to be one of the capabilities of fill based layers...
