Interior Walls going through floors

Hi Folks,

 

I am a total novice with Chief Home Designer Pro and first time posted here.  I have watched a dozen tutorials and started on a floor plan.  Got the exterior walls done and the foundation seems OK.  But I have notice that when I draw an interior wall the thing seems to appear also in the second story.

 

Below see the bath on the right side,  I just drew the interior walls and they appear also in the second story.

There is a check box under Wall Specification->structure called "Stop at ceiling above"  This one seems to have no effect at all, plus not sure why I should have to check this for an interior wall anyway.

 

Also my dormer that I drew seems to show in the 1st floor as well.  Another mystery to me.

 

Many other quirks and confusions that I am trying to work through but lets start with the question of how to keep a wall from extending beyond its floor.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

These are probably auto generated attic walls.

You can toggle the behaviour off in the General Wall Defaults.
