Missing Attic Wall

[Rander91]

Hello everyone,

 

I am having an issue with an attic wall not generating, how do I go about continuing the back porch attic wall to continue to where the roof planes over the house meet? I've always had issues with roofs for some reason, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Toggle up to the <A> attic level, turn on the "Reference Display" that shows you where the first floor walls are, then manually extend the attic wall that is too short. This is what you do also for missing attic walls-you manually draw them in.

In this particular instance, it looks like you need to drag out an extra Attic Wall section on Floor 2 and set to Roof Cuts Wall at Bottom (Roof tab):

 

NOTE:  It actually requires 2 attic walls because of the intersection with the pantry walls but you should be able to drag out a single wall.  The break should occur automatically.  Just make sure both walls have the correct settings.

Thank you!

I actually did that initially, to no avail. I tried it again, but made the extended attic wall the same size as the dutch gable and it worked.
It turns out you can't overextend the attic wall PAST the dutch gable or it won't work. 
Seems kind of counter intuitive.
