I just upgraded from home designer 10 to X8 for the purpose of legitimate Architectural drawing packages so I am not a total newbie and I have an understanding of some of the basics.
I've already come across a couple of frustrations due to Chief Architect thinking it knows better than me. I am making a CMU block perimeter wall with brick facing on 3 sides with the 4th side being exposed CMU. I did short sections of brick wall returns on the CMU 4th side to have finished brick corners (and because that 4th CMU wall would always override the brick face walls into the corners - couldn't find a way to force the brick walls into the corners). I also have noted that the short returns I made have to be long enough to actually continue to exist, they will disappear if I compress them towards the corners with the 4th CMU wall always overriding.
If anyone has suggestions on how to control my attempts to blend these walls better please let me know.
Now my real question about all this is the WTF moment I've been having at the floor space of where the first and 2nd floors meet at the intersection of one of the two corners of what I have described above.
Screenshot 1 shows my plan view to give an idea of what I've described above, screenshot 2 shows the one elevation without the problem and screenshot 3 shows the elevation with my problem in the ceiling/floor area between the 1st and 2nd floor.
