XYZ

Remarks

For curtain walls and stacked walls, the wall itself doesn't have exterior and interior side faces. Therefore, in both cases, the wall's orientation is not changed when it is flipped. However, flipping curtain walls or stacked walls will change the orientations of their sub-walls. In the case of curtain walls, sub-walls are present when a curtain panel type is changed to a wall.
