I think you are going to have to post the plan if you want some help.

SandyCreekHangerVer15.planHere is the plan.

SandyCreekHangerVer15j.planlooks like you have created some invisible walls to try and reduce the effect. this has led to the second story room not actually being a room, as the walls are set to "no locate". I changed them

you also have a break in your front main floor wall. not sure why. I removed it (in doing so the attached lost the door windows on that side). I also removed the invisible wall on the south side, second floor

 

your lower brick wall is also 3.5" instead of 5.5. I changed it. you can see the foundation line does not match the adjacent wall

 

I edited the intersection of the front walls second floor to remove the vertical lines on the ortho. But because the south side balooned wall does not show on the second floor, that one is still there. maybe someone else has some ideas

Just a heads up.

No Locate walls have no effect on wether a room is defined or not.

That setting stops auto exterior dimensions from dimensioning to the wall.

Instead, you probably need No Room Definition to prevent a room from forming.

thanks, my mistake, I did not remember what I actually unchecked. looking back  all 3 were checked

[SHCanada2]

so I looked a little closer and the 2nd floor outside room definition looked odd.

 

I rebuilt it with normal walls for the second floor, and put open to below for the two storey rooms, and I think it looks fine now. You should take a look at the footing for the brick half wall, it does not match the rest.

 

So not sure why you were using attic walls, invisible walls, for the second floor. maybe you were trying to accomplish something?

your first level is showing blue floor. I believe you need the floor under this room checked

 

i did it for the one room and now it shows the hardwood:

 

your roof planes are on the first level, seems odd

 

not sure if you intended 6' walls on the end:

If so I assume then you want a sloping ceiling. if so, the flat ceiling should be unchecked in the second floor room definition 

 

 

 

 

[SHCanada2]

you can see this roof problem n plan view with the dashed line. this is saying the roof is encroaching into the ceiling

 

you can fix this by setting the room height to the 6' from above, but it really depends on how you are constructing this. If it is trussed, I would put the trusses in and lift the roof planes the heel height

 

looking some more, your plate heights are different front to back, again not sure if this was your intent

 

 

if I set the north and south 2nd floor walls as gable and auto built the roof, the plates are the same

 

 

If I put in trusses with 24" heel

 

if i change that second floor room to now be flat ceiling

which, may in the end be what you want?
