manny - edit the wall family - turn on the preview
- change it to section
- click on modify vertical structure / modify
- click on the bottom line of the layer you want to move up or down
- unlock it
Now, from a section, you can pull this skin up or down while the rest of the wall stays in place

I've unlocked the wall layers using the modify vertical structure. However, I dont get any grips when in section to move the layers I just unlocked. I've tried unlocking and relocking layers to appease it but then I get an error saying that I can't go beyond extension layer. What gives? Does it have to be a certain kind of layer ( finish 4 or 5)? Does it have anything to do with wrapping?
I have another wall with virtually identical settings and it works fine. Revit just doesnt like this new wall I made for some reason.
Thanks.

I discovered that the layer pulldown doesn't work in the following instances:
If geometry is joined together then the vertical sections do not function.
Also, unlocked layers must be adjacent so it doesnt let you do both outer layers(?)

Be creative!!!
As long as both outer layers will go to the vertical elevation, you can do both layers. Just unlock all of the interior layers, set the wall to where you want THE OUSIDE LAYERS and then move all the inside layers away from that.
