I bet a huge part of the problem is that very few people submit these things to tech support.

I suspect it's an issue with your wall definition though.

Attaching the plan would probably be a good idea.

You should probably attach the plan.

I messed around with it a little more... Not sure why, but in the wall definition for your exterior wall, if "Build Platform To Exterior Of Layer" is set to a main layer it keeps that wall from automatically ballooning through. So, as another option, you can either change that to your stud layer or make your OSB a main layer.

Shameless (my head shaking in sad disapproval)

Not clear to me why, but there are indeed 2 walls occupying the same space. That lower wall is automatically ballooning up to the roofline. You can either search through your plan and figure out why that is happening, or you can just manually drag it down in elevation...or any other number of things (such as what Eric suggested above).

Not by my computer but I'm guessing you have 2 different walls occupying the same space for one reason or another.

You can expect X8.

You're very welcome. Thank YOU for actually posting a plan.

I think its your wall definition. You've added a layer (presumably a paint color) with a zero thickness on each side of the wall. That zero thickness layer is what's wrapping the end of the wall. Delete that layer or increase the thickness and the framing covers.

You bet.

Can you attach the plan and perhaps a screenshot showing your issue?

At step 6 try to click "Generate Block".

It was actually already in a custom countertop.

Newell, This is a tough one because its hard to tell exactly what you are trying to draw, how you got there, and what some of the different structure settings are supposed to be. It would probably be worth while for you to take some training (specifically one on one to have someone walk you through it) or spend a little more time reading through the manual, guide, and/or help files and consider just rebuilding that from scratch. The plan is a mess and has a lot of things going on that were modeled incorrectly and so I'm not even sure it CAN be fixed. Honestly, if you can't get it sorted out in a couple hours or so, it might be faster to just redraw anyway.

I was working on a bathroom design yesterday and I ended up needing to replace a cabinet with another one (before you ask, the cabinet had been highly modified using the Split Vertically and Split Horizontally operations and I could no longer make the changes I needed to make so keeping it wasn't a viable option). The problem is that I had set a sink into the original cabinet and had then proceeded to spend some time re-sizing it and changing materials to get it just right. I guess I've never really noticed it till now, but once a sink is placed into a cabinet, it becomes part and parcel of that cabinet...If the cabinet is deleted the sink is deleted (even if that sink is dragged away from the cabinet), the sink cannot be cut or copied, and the sink cannot be selected and added to the library independently of the cabinet. After trying for probably 15 minutes to keep my customized sink, I ended up just deleting it and making those changes all over again. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a way I could have kept the sink or added it to the library?

Good job. That's what happens when you have the plan to look at ;-)

Can you please attach the plan.

And then just submit the post. You just need to actually write something in the post first is all.

Because you have not attached a plan, this is just a guess, but I am assuming you expected the moulding to go to the top of the wall but "to top" is setting the moulding in relation to your moulding p-line...not the wall. To get that moulding to the top of the wall you would have to adjust the height of the moulding p-line...or offset the moulding by the height of the wall. In other words, if you have a 96" tall wall, you could either set the moulding p-line at 96" and set the moulding at 0" "to top" or you could set the moulding p-line at 0" and set the moulding to 96" "to top".

Eric's solution might work for you, but I would encourage you to reconsider the way you drew the plan in the first place. I would have essentially... 1. Drawn first floor walls and deck 2. Built second floor and just dragged the exterior walls out for the cantilever area (no extra rooms or ceiling planes) 3. Drawn the roofs. Unless you have some other reason for doing things the way you did, I tend to think you may have just over-complicated it a bit.

I don't know what exactly you are trying to draw, but I personally see no reason for the extra room definitions at the cantilever areas. It looks like you've purposely created those "rooms" using invisible walls, extra ceiling planes, etc. which is causing your problems and I don't see why it was necessary.

Sadly...this is sometimes true :,(

...or you can do as Joe suggested and use the delete surface tool to create a new symbol.
