I am new to Vectorworks and I am working on drafting my first house after completing a few of the sample projects on Vectorworks Academy. I am trying to model the slabs (12" floor joists with sheathing) but when I use the slab tool it states "A slab cannot be created from the bounds of these objects. pick a series of connected walls". I have tried change the wall to a simpler wall style, using the wall joining tool to ensure they are connected, redrawing the walls such that they are all drawn in a series, starting a new file, etc. If someone could help me trouble shoot this issue that would be greatly appreciated. I have attached the file for reference.
