Giulia,

   It seems that maybe the Trnsys3D plugin is not functioning correctly. 
I would first try closing down SketchUp and then reopening it. It 
appears from the pictures you attached that you are doing the right 
thing. Are you able to see the properties of other walls if you click on 
them?

kind regards,

  David
