Hello All,
I have a problem with editing a composite wall assembly (Edit Assembly dialog box). It was mentioned to us during the course, but so many things were mentioned then - I simply can't recall the procedure. Watching some of the threads here, I found references to this issue, but when I try to follow them I'm stuck.
After I open a composite wall properties dialog box (Element Properties -> Edit/New -> Edit (Structure)) I have a following wall composition (see picture 1): Core boundary, Structure [1], Core boundary, Finish 1 [4].
I want to achieve a very simple thing: that my "Finish 1 [4] " layer will extend 450mm below my "Structure [1]" layer, hiding a flooring system.
So, I open the preview window, go to "section: modify attributes" view, "un-lock" both bottom edges (both layers) - as advised in one of the threads here - and then what?
When I try to "drag" any of the edges - nothing happens... Splitting any of the layers (regions) is not what I want (I think ...?) nor is joining them... Obviously I don't want to include any reveals or sweeps and I run out of options!
I tried to find an answer in the "Help" but wasn't very successful.
How should I do it?
Jerry. :-(
