This helped so much thank you! I'm working on a renovation project and all the walls are different sizes, but I did not know about the trapezoid wall. Thank you for your time!
Do you have a video, where you show how to manage the grafic override? Im strugglin with it and i would love to see how to override in different way (texture, complex profile(just core/no finish ,New-Old)
I don't have a video, but I've written a few posts on the topic: blog.graphisoftus.com/archicad-education/tips-and-tricks/pen-sets-part-nine-graphic-overrides blog.graphisoftus.com/archicad-education/tips-and-tricks/intelligent-dumbing-2016 blog.graphisoftus.com/archicad-education/tips-and-tricks/order-of-operations-managing-graphic-override-combinations blog.graphisoftus.com/value-of-bim/order-and-complexity-managing-graphic-override-rules-and-combinations
3:46 But with this method (instead of separate multilayer component) you can't use the evaluation of the Inner-Core of the insulation, it lists just the standard-value of thickness. In addition, I have to calculate the thickness of each wall itself... nice to see but in some cases not practicable...
I find this technique is best for dealing with existing conditions where there isn't much need for deeper data as it's just dumb existing geometry that rarely shows up in schedules. 9 out of 10 times if I'm doing new construction and have a weird thickness wall, I create a new Composite. Or change the design!

Really helpful vid. Thanks for sharing
Glad you liked it.
Thank you - really helpful and so awesomely quick
