Auto Roof Return Broken by Railing

[KilianDrafting]

Anyone encounter this on their full auto roof return?

 - I have lowered the ceiling height of the open deck to see if that would cause the issue (even though I have ceiling unchecked)

 - I pulled back the railing connection to the face of the exterior wall

 - I tried pulling the top handles of the railing down, but it wouldn't let me move them down

 - I tried removing the roof return and then putting it back on.

 

It was good before, but I moved the deck edge four feet to the right and when I pulled up the overview I noticed it split the auto roof return.

I checked to make sure there are no attic walls above the railing that are causing this. Not sure if I am missing something or just need to draw it manually.

I suggest you make the offending rail wall Invisible and then fill it in with slabs, poly-line solids of soffits to make the railing visible. but first, see if making the wall invisible solves the unwanted gap in the return. You can also turn off the auto full return and draw a manual return as a possible solution.

I also tried making the wall invisible. Didn't work

Open the deck room and reduce the ceiling height so it's below the return.

 

That was the first thing I tried, sorry if I wasn't clear.

Here is the offending wall. Looks good when I select it

 

when I hit tab that is when I get the edit handles that are above the return but I can't move it down

Here you go - no judging! I am still learning chief.

Offending deck is on the right side of plan near middle.

 

Viewing may be a little difficult. I work with black background and high contrast colors because of poor eyesight.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

 

I'll try to keep this in the back of my mind for the future.

Next time try using a manual roof return. Auto roof returns can be temperamental. I opened the plan and changed the 2D wall color (cause the baby blue was making my head spin) and the roof return corrected itself.
