      Hello all. I'm having trouble figuring out how to get a window to cut through a wall panel. I've inserted a FlexWindow into a wall and it cut the opening just right. But on the inside of the wall i've added a FlexPanel to represent a tile backsplash and the window doesn't cut through it. I've set the depth of the window frame to the wall + the panel thickness. I've changed the number of layers with the WallCutter tool. I even deleted the window and added it back after the panel was done. I'm sure there's something I'm missing...

        I think that once you've placed the panels you're going to have to explode them. Then perhaps make a box the size of the window and intersect with the wall, clean up everything inside (or use boolean cut if that will work), then place the window in that opening.
