Hi all,

I've been trying with no success to find a solution as to why the plaster wraps on my cavity wall WITHIN the inner leaf (blockwork)

I've atttached an image.

Its like the plaster just needs to be fliped at the reveal!

The only way I've got around it at the moment, is by turning wraps off and manually tracing the remaining plaster board around the window reveal.

Thanks

You will control that in the family(Window) with a Reference Plane set to Wall Closure

Hi thanks for the response, Im still a notice trying to self learn. Can you elaborate on how to change reference plane to wall closure.

Im using a standard window from the revit families, when I tick the wall closure I get an error ''No more than two closure planes are allowed'' Can you find out where the existing planes are set?

Here's an example :)
Select the door and look for the Wall Closure Distance parameter.

In the family there's a Reference Plane set to be the Wall Closure

Cheers for that, but could you backdate the file to 2013, I cant open it.

You can't save backward in Revit and i don't have 2013 installed anymore. Sorry
