Floor trusses between floors instead of i-joists

I'm in X17 and have adjusted my settings to trusses vs i-joists for my floor defaults. When I go to build - framing it is still putting in i-joists. I've double and triple checked my settings and can't find where it might be pulling in information that is causing the i-joists. I'm doing a three story home with web trussing between the 1st and 2nd floor as well as the 2nd and 3rd floor, but can't get it to show correctly in the section cut.

Works for me. Since you say you've checked your settings, you must be missing something.

Are you using a layer set that shows framing members? Did you rebuild framing after changing any settings? You would get a quick accurate answer if you posted the plan file, instead of guesses.

 

Out of the box X17, with proper framing and display settings:
