mountaineer Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hey guys. I'm using Chief Architect version 9. I just got and error message that says "Could not connect new stairwell railings to some of the existing walls or railings, so could not make the open stairwell room." I've never seen this error before and there isn't anything in the knowledge base? Wasn't sure if anyone has seen this. At this point I have a blank 2nd floor and my cross section looks fine as far as stair height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when that does not work, post the plan file. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I deleted my 1st floor walls around my stairs and it fixed the problem. Then I was able to just draw them back in. To the Signature comment.....I explained in my post I was using version 9. I don't use forum often and apparently forgot to update my version in my signature. Thank you for pointing that out but the others were able to suggest input without a problem. Not sure why you felt the need to comment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have no idea who the user is that goes by the name "Signatures" but the request isn't without merit. When we get questions it's often not possible to answer without knowing what version of the software is being used. Sometimes it's a Home Designer product and sometimes it's a Chief Architect product. In addition, the capabilities of newer versions are different than prior versions and it really helps to know what the version is in order to give the best answers. In addition, if a plan is posted it's much easier for us to see exactly what the problem might be rather than just guessing. It helps you get the right answer quicker and saves us making guesses that might not help at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Eric! I honestly had no idea there was a difference between x9 and version 9. I do appreciate your help very much. I updated my signature. 5 minutes ago, solver said: I noticed that, but I see now that you are using X9, not version 9 -- they are different.

I posted that I was using Chief Architect 9, I should have been more specific. I usually upload my plan but my 2nd floor was blank so I was more interested if anyone was familiar with that error code since there was nothing in Knowledge base. Thanks for your input. I truly respect and appreciate all of the users that are willing to help, especially being a rookie user. I just felt that "Signatures" comment brought nothing positive to the conversation and I guess I just felt it was unnecessary. Hopefully someday as I get better at this I'll be able to offer help to new users as well. Thanks again for your input, it is truly appreciated. 9 minutes ago, Joe_Carrick said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
