In Elevation tab from Edit Double wall, one can add, edit or remove the settings of Double wall panels. It is possible to configure Panel 1, Panel 2 or both panels.

The preview is dynamic, meaning that the panel settings are immediately reflect in the preview. It is possible to display Panel 1, Panel 2 or Both panels.

In IMPACT Revit Q3/2023 release version, we made some changes on how the distances and lengths are taken when one of the Double wall panels is shortened. It is now taken into consideration the length of the panel from where it is shortened. Previously, it was taken into consideration the original length of the panel. If you are interested on how the Edit panel length works, then please check the Edit panel length article.  

Example below:

The original length of the Double wall is 4000mm. We have shortened Panel 1 with 499mm , meaning that the total length of Panel 1 is now 3501mm.

The result after adding and applying the settings for the shortened panel is shown in the picture below - it is now considering the shortened panel and not the original length of the Double wall.
