How to split a gable wall to have gable wall above and railing below.

[Ed_Orum]

This building has a cathedral ceiling with a railing on the second floor that defines a balcony area looking out into the room below.

But, I can't get the gable wall to behave so that the upper portion is a full gable wall (where the wall portion is above the roof) and the lower part of the gable wall is a railing.

Any help is greatly appreciated.  The plan file is attached.

 

Thanks!

Select the gable wall. Ensure tob and bottom are default heights. Check "Roof Cuts Wall at Bottom"

Draw a portion of railing wall slightly away from where you want it. Open and check "No Room Definitions". Extend the railing wall the full length. Align the railing with the exterior of the gable wall.
