SNestor Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Can anyone tell me why when I create this gable end wall which extend over a porch room that has a sloped ceiling plane...why the ceiling plane cuts off the gable end and it ends up sticking down below the sloped ceiling plane? I thought if I selected "roof cuts wall at bottom"...that might help...but it didn't. In PIC #1 you can see the gable end wall sticking down below the porch sloped ceiling. In PIC #2...I tried pulling the roof all the wall into the building and using "roof cuts wall at bottom"...but that didn't work either. In PIC #3...I pulled the roof back to the face of the gable end wall. Same result. I'm hoping someone can help just by looking at some pics...as the file is large. If not...I'll try to simplify the plan and upload. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNestor Posted January 16, 2018 Author Share Posted January 16, 2018 Attached is a test plan that closely represents the plan I'm working on...I got the same result. I think I'm doing something wrong...but, not sure what. Thanks for looking... GABLE END WALL ISSUE - PLAN.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Eric...that worked. One more question...does the gable end wall above the porch ceiling (roof cuts wall at bottom) have to be a separate wall from the main gable end wall? I had it as one long wall...and selected roof cuts at bottom...and it messed up the entire wall. Thanks again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Chief still won't generate an automatic attic wall where no wall below exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On occasion I have been able to use a single wall, but it's very plan specific. Your plan, for example, has a second floor, but no defined room there, which may make a difference. Eric...thanks much for the help and info. The second floor may have something to do with it as I don't recall having this problem using an OOB template...which didn't have a second floor. May have to experiment to see... Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
