Deleting Automatically Generated Wall

[Grizzdj]

I am unable to delete a wall and continually get the message that it is an automatically generated wall. This is on a second story. I want a wall there but I simply want to delete this problem wall that keeps reappearing and will not go away. I've tried making it invisible and building a new wall over the top of it, but a number of problems have come up such as the new wall coming in at a height that is not the same as the others (sometimes at a negative height). Any help would be appreciated.

Perhaps the best hing for you right now is to go to the default settings ( the little wrench Icon), click on the "General Wall" tab, then the edit button and un-check "Auto Rebuild Attic Walls".

Those are automatically generated attic walls that you having trouble with.

Auto-generated Attic Walls are mostly a positive thing. Turning that feature off will also turn off your auto-generated gable rake walls. What I do is to make "invisible" any auto-generated Attic Walls (since they can't be deleted really) as a more workable policy than globally turning them off.

Making it invisible seems to have worked. Thanks you very much

If it is a left over wall and you have made changes that won't generate that wall again you can open it, uncheck attic wall and delete.

I sometimes make a copy of attic walls in my layer displays, rename it "unwanted walls" then I can change the layer, and turn them off in a plan or 3d view. Many times, I get walls over the front porch in plan and dollhouse views of the 2nd floor, and I want to eliminate them.
