hi
how to split wall surface ( not splitting walls). because i have to apply brick course on some area of the wall surface.i have good option revit to do this operation. But i dont know where it is in Bentley Architecture V8i.
thanks

I'm not completely following this part - "how to split wall surface (not splitting walls)". Are you trying to create some type of cutout in the wall?
What he is asking is how to adding or change coarsing in his wall. In Revit there is the ability to start with a schematic wall and then apply brick types and sections as your elevation evolves. This is not as streamline in BA, you will have to model each part of the wall, running bond, soldier coarse, running bond, on top of each other or build a compound wall, in Family and Parts.
Then take your generatic wall and upgrade to the new compund wall.
It would also be nice to have a coarse pattern shown, not a rendered pattern that does nothing for my elevations and sections, but line work so you can line up coarsing and show when it changes styles.

i was attached image here. how i can do this in family & Parts. really i am new to Bentley products.
Well here goes for one way - as there are probably several.
For the horizontal I'd add them to my windows as they are part of their placement and would move with the windows.
The veritacal I would add as a wing on the wall.
OR - Another way (if these were just panels) I would be to create each as a panel. and then apply then to the face of the existing brick.
OR - if the panel includee complicated brick patterns - I'd create each panel and insert them into the brick with a coumpound cut or by bisecting the brick at each panel.
OR - IF you are just applying peices or wings onto the brick face. You could use depth lock for the face of the brick and just draw the brick as if you were drawings short wall on top of the elevation. You would cut OFF the ACS so you could draw the wall/forms in elevation.
