Well ... I think these are the correct results :-) By using the larger
container you increased the max_gradient (probabbly a lot) needed for a
correct result. What you get by your first try is an incorrect result.
I _think_ (still untested) that you will get correct results by increasing
the "+2.35" in the rounded_box (the door). Perhaps you will have to increase
z-dimension of the box, too.
What happens? Your building is bigger than you think. By subtracting the
Brick_Fun_New you move most of the surface further "out". This way, the
rounded_box doesn't cut through the whole thing. As your max_gradient is set
too low to represent the resulting function, you get that semi-transparent
look.
Sorry, for that incorrect code snipped, I was in a hurry :-)

Hope this will work,
