I have an existing building we jacked up and need to add 3 sill plates under walls. i can not seem to get software to show all 4 plates.

I changed wall definition under foundation to 4 sill plates (see picture) rebuilt framing but only 1 plate still in framing picture.

Am i adding the plates in the wrong dialog box

A "Sill" plate (the first board down on a foundation wall) as it's typically called and the first board down under a framed wall is typically called a wall plate or "shoe". At least that's what I and my framing crews call it. I've called it a "shoe" for 40 yrs.  But to the OP, depending on which Plates/Sills your referring to, I assume the lower wall plate/shoe based on your picture...I was able to add 3 and 4 show up after framing walls.
