I am trying to develop my code to change the window sizes and wall types.
How ever it is a loop so that I have lists for window dimensions and wall types, at the end I will get exported gbXML files for all the options regarding the window modifications and the export to gbXML the code is working, but I have problem in changing the wall types and to access the wall type class

Can someone advise.
