Automatically embed walls

[Andre Baros]

Starting in Revit 7, you can have a curtain wall automatically embed itself in a regular wall, you just check the box under the construction tab of the wall properties and set it to automatically embed itself. However, I can't find a way to embed a regular wall into a curtain wall or a regular wall into another regular wall. Do I have to edit the profile of the host wall or is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,

...can't find a way to embed a regular wall into a curtain wall...Curtain wall: Hover over the edge of a panel, (Tab if needed), select the panel and choose the wall type you want to use from the type selector.

Regular wall: Cut Geometry... Draw the wall you want to embed over the top of the host. Then, start Cut Geometry, pick the host, then pick the wall to embed.

Thanks, the wall in wall was just acting up but armed with the knowledge that it SHOULD work I pushed it TO work. Earlier it wasn't letting me select the second wall to embed.
