j2narchitecture Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Hello. I am starting a remodeling plan based off of an existing plan. When I delete an exterior first floor wall (i.e. a wall that is being demolished), an attic wall shows in its place and the floor disappears in perspective overview. Why are attic walls being automatically generated for my first floor exterior walls? Any suggestion on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. TIA !

DRAWZILLA Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I always just turn off attic walls in plan view. if you want the existing floor to show, you need to add reference sets as needed. Chief has videos on their web site about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgardner Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Your foundation wall is trying to build through to the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j2narchitecture Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 Thank you everybody for your feedback. @DRAWZILLA I would also need to turn off the attic walls in the perspective overview and that creates other issues on gable walls. @solver Attached is a pic of the particular wall I need to remove. @rgardner Is there a way to stop the foundation from trying to build up to the roof? I tried the Wall Specs --> Structure ---> Platform settings to see if any of these would work. No luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move the foundation wall to the new location, or you can select the foundation "room" and unselect roof temporarily until you have things ready.
