ferchl Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I'm encountering an issue where interior walls drawn under a flat ceiling plane, but near a sloped ceiling, are stopping at the rafters, instead of the ceiling plane. It makes no difference if "Stop at Ceiling Above" is enabled for the wall objects. Is there any way to get these walls to stop at the ceiling plane? It's very easy to recreate this issue, but I have attached a super simple plan that demonstrates it. Note: There is no issue when there is a normal automatic ceiling above. To recreate the issue, I have to turn off ceiling above and then manually create a new ceiling plane that is higher than the top plate. Using version X8.

javatom Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 It looks like it is stopping at the ceiling just like you want. I must be misunderstanding the question. Why do you have so many walls so close together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan_Son Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Tom, I think the multiple walls were just to help illustrate the problem. Notice how it's only the 3 walls on each of the 2 outside ends that are framing through the ceiling plane and stopping at the roof above instead of stopping at the manual ceiling plane. ferchl, I can easily see your problem and I can't explain the behaviour. I think your should report this to tech support. In the meantime, I think your best bet is simply to drag the offending walls down in elevation.

ferchl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 Alaskan_Son, thank you for seeing so clearly what I was trying to demonstrate. It's driving me crazy - the manual ceiling plane should be the stopper. I could not find an easy way to manually edit the offending wall because the drywall does correctly stop at the ceiling. Only the framing runs too high. I really don't want to select individual framing members to make the change. Is there an easier way? ShaneK, thanks for verifying that you see the issue on your system as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferchl Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 Your video clearly showed how to easily adjust the wall height to work around the anomaly. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
