Locked Walls Move

Good morning,

I assumed the purpose of locking a wall was to prevent any changes to that wall, including its position in the plan.

My problem this morning is I need to push a 2x4 stud wall against a 12" concrete wall.  But every time I do, the foundation wall disappears.

Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

You might need to check the furred wall box in the 2x4 wall so it can exist close to your conc. wall.

Your zipped file only contains the layout file....which is blank.

I think this is what should have been written in reply to the OP.  Ed when using the furred wall option, that wall no longer will define a wall.  This may lead to a mis calculation of the room area by CA, but the wall will not replace the concrete wall.  You can also create a new wall type that includes the furred part.  That will calculate properly.
