Wishlist - include the ability to add additional snap points to the surface perimeter of a smart wall type to create any wall shape. We accept having tapered extrusions is more complex so for starters allowing the irregular shape as a single extrusion (Z-axis) would be welcomed.
Yes, Smart Walls will need to have parametric Z axis properties. Steps and tapers and sloped tops and stepped bottoms - all at various Z heights will be needed if we ever expect parametric walls to be used by very many people.
We also will need Smart Floors, Smart Stairs and Smart Roofs to have full parametric building models as the basis for construction documents.
