I believe it's because you had those balcony walls defined as railings with pony walls:

 

 

I don't think pony walls are necessary here.  The balcony lap siding half-height wall starts at the floor level.  (The stucco wall is on floor below).  So, I redefined the railing walls as solid rail style with newels/posts as post to beam.  The post location seems to work now.

Also turn on attick walls there is one that messing with that intersection I found the problem went away when I deleted the attick walls if this is a suitable thing to do

Getting rid of those attic walls is what fixed it.
Not sure why it generated the attic walls.

You might check your Defaults/Walls/General Walls

and uncheck "Auto Rebuild Attic Walls". I think this

is checked by default but I find that it often creates

more problems than it solves.

Good idea, Thank You

Hey guys,

On this same project, I’m running into a situation where I’d like to build a room over an existing room that has a low ceiling. I understand how to physically build it, but I’m not sure what the best way is to make it work properly within Chief Architect.

Any input or direction would be much appreciated.

Just to clarify what I’m working on, I’m converting the garage into an ADU and adding a second story over the garage and part of the existing living room and dining room.

Plan is still attached
