dnpayne Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 So I have a weird issue. When I place a window on a certain wall, it shows the wall going through the window. I've tried deleting and readding, but it still does it. It only seems to be this wall too. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Yeah, you probably have an extra wall somewhere, seen this before, can not give definite answer without plan, you must try to figure out what is causing this, bottom line, there are two walls where the window is...... I think...... but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy1 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Try disconnecting the wall at one end and then rejoin it. If it still does it, try deleting the window an placing another window. You can also close the program and reopen. If you have the wall framed, try reframing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenoeightspot Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Select your first floor wall and open the DBX and check "Default wall Ht". in case you pull the first floor wall up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnpayne Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Well I'll be. That was it Kenoeightspot. The bottom floor wall is showing double height. I'm not seeing where to adjust this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KilgoreTrout Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Go to the structure tab and check the "default wall top" box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnpayne Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Looks like it's already checked. Any other thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Sometimes **** happens, I would just delete that wall a place a new one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnpayne Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 It looks like the wall height is fine, but it's extending the siding up two levels. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnpayne Posted May 22, 2014 Author Share Posted May 22, 2014 Sometimes **** happens, I would just delete that wall a place a new one Tried that. It works... sort of. When I specify the room as a bedroom it reverts back to the extended siding. This is driving me nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KilgoreTrout Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Not really sure what's going on there. It's probably some kind of wall connection or room definition issue. Might even be a wall alignment issue. You should either post the plan or send it in to tech support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 This is a great thread, one question, four guesses from some of the biggest nitwits to grace this site (including me), and we do not have a answer. I will put up 10 zlotyies (approx. $3.30), that the question will not be answered before the run the Indianapolis 500 this weekend. In fact it probably will not be anwered before the July 4rth weekend. Anybody want to take that bet? Of course if the plan is posted, all bets are off, heck, if the plan is posted JC can probably come up with the answer...... love ya JC, still thinking about golf next Thursday.... things are getting busy..... having problems squeezing my wife into my life right now.

Doug_Park Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Walls not aligned vertically is my guess. Would need to look at the plan to figure it out for sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Walls not aligned vertically is my guess. Would need to look at the plan to figure it out for sure though. And now 5 guesses, even a Chief muckity muck needs the plan, but I bet he is wrong, I am going to stick with my theory that it is a double wall issue.

dnpayne Posted May 24, 2014 Author Share Posted May 24, 2014 For some reason it's not letting me attach the plan. I did manage to fix the extended siding issue, but that developed a new issue. See the back right corner. Now there is a gap in the siding. Something weird is going on here. Still not exactly sure what the problem was/is here. Glad I can get everyone's brains working.

dnpayne Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 Like I said before, the file uploader won't let me post the plan. I keep getting an error. I can post other files just fine. It's below the 10mb limit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenoeightspot Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Copy the plan then delete items like stairs, terrain etc. everything around the trouble walls. put back in the double wall and tell us your solution. Don't forget to close CA. then "zip" the file before trying to attach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnpayne Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 Plan attached. I somehow fixed the extended siding, but you'll notice that there is a void now.If you are looking at the back of the house, its the left side. cedarpoint.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Open the dbx for the upper floor wall and uncheck Attic Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
