Foundation wall is not lining up with outside of 2 x 6 wall

Just recently, I noticed a plan where the foundation alignment is placing the foundation to the center of the 2 x 6 framing above. 

 

The main layer designations are correct.

 

The foundation defaults were reset as well.

 

Any help would be appreciated. 

 

In the first attachment, I made a 16" wide foundation wall (to show how obvious the center placement) is after using the Align Wall Tool.

Thanks Rene...

 

I reset the defaults for the foundation.

 

The walls are aligning correctly now. 

 

I'm afraid to do a reset defaults or rebuild the foundation after doing over a year of work on it.  

 

I may have to experiment and see if that's possible.

Thank you Gene.

 

I re-uploaded. The plan file is way over the limit.

 

The upload works now.

 

...again, If I could only change the current foundation walls without having to rebuild the foundation.

EDIT...

 

So again thank you everyone for taking a look. The culprit was finally chased down.  

 

As it turns out, this is not an X-15 plan issue w/ X-16.

 

The house has a stone terrace with foundation walls.  

(Those outer foundation walls had "room definition".)

 

By unchecking "room definition" for the terrace foundation, the exterior walls on the back of the house went back to normal behavior.  

(Meaning that they can now be aligned using the Align Wall tool.)

 

Posting this for anyone in the future in case they come across this condition. 

 

Many thanks for offering to assist and for your time!! It is greatly appreciated.
