Have the window sitting above cut plane in my project.
Tried to add invisible lines to the window family but in this case walls do not wrap at the opening.(fig 2). Trying to achieve this kinda look (fig 1).
Does anybody have any suggestions how to do this?
Thanks in advance.

if I understand correctly, what you need to do is to create a plan region, go to design bar view, select plan region, and create a rectangle around the window then select the properties and change the cut plane for that plan region, you can access the command if you go to the menu view, new, plan region. Hope this works.

A plan region will do the job. But They really are clunky. If you have the opportunity to show it on a 2nd floor or mabe a refelcted ceiling plan that might work. After all the window does not accour at that level you want to show it on. My 2 cents, because plan regions can become a problem if you are doing underlays on other views.
