Thank you for your response. Sorry if I wasn't clear, but the interior walls are already set to "furred."
I'm not sure if this will help with the diagnostic (or if it's a different problem altogether), but when I select the room, it seems to be dimensioning to the exterior walls (vs. the interior ones, which I'd prefer). Yet none of the interior walls walls appear to have any gaps (they're all properly connected), so I'm not sure why.
Thanks again for any help you can provide!

The plan I'm using is a bit large and messy to post, but I've created a very simplified one (attached) which duplicates the problems:
- The electrical fixtures are "snapping" to the exterior foundation wall instead of the interior (furred) one.
- The interior dimensions are being automatically calculated from the outer walls (vs. the interior ones), so it's providing an inaccurate room size.
Again, the walls are set up as follows:
- Both sets are "double walls"
- The exterior cement ones are "split framing"
- The interior studded ones are "furred walls"
- In the definition for the interior/studded/furred walls, "dimension to this line" is checked.
Thanks again for your help!
