TomSams Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Good Morning. If I wanted to use a 60" 2nd floor exterior wall height and a 9' ceiling height, what would be the best way to go about it? I realize the wall height is determined by the ceiling height, but I just can't seem to get around that. Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark3D Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 If understand set ceilings to 9’ and lower your roof planes to 60” and that should cut your walls down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNestor Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Set your 2nd floor room height to 60"...build the roof, make sure auto rebuild roofs is turned off, then, open defaults and change your 2nd floor room height to 9'. You will get a ceiling break line showing where the sloping ceiling intersects the flat 9' ceiling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomSams Posted April 15, 2022 Author Share Posted April 15, 2022 Thanks Steve, I guess the issue for me is setting the wall to 60", where is that setting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't set the wall to 60. You use your roof planes to cut your walls down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wall heights are determined by the "room". Open the room dialogue and set the ceiling height. This will set your wall height. You can also leave the room at the default height...and use transform replicated to move the roof plane down. Enter the value to lower in the "Z" axis. So...if the room is 97 1/8...and you want the wall to be 60"...just lower the roof 37 1/8". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
