In the wall definitions I some times have wing walls that have exterior finishes on both sides, usually siding. How do I get the siding on the interior side of the wall definition to reverse so that the orientation is correct for the siding like it shows on the exterior side of the wall definition?

If it looks right in 3d and plan view it doesn't matter how it looks in the wall definition. Does it display properly in 3d?

If you want to correct the direction in a section drawing you are able to reverse it

you can copy the siding surface and past it to the other side where you want it

He has a point.  "while in wall definition"  when creating a wall you are unable to reverse horizontal siding.  Martin is correct, after the section is generated you can reverse the siding.

 

Great opportunity for Softplan to fix this in wall definition.....sidings should be flipped depending on which side of a stud they are applied.

 

Good catch John

I have created backward siding profiles to combat this.
