Wall height issues

[Solace]

Does anyone know why this is happening? I draw a wall and it doesn't come up the set wall height for that layer?

Check out the alert at the bottom of the image you posted.  "A component of this wall is using a story bound that does not exist".

 

If the wall is styled, edit the components of the style.  If it's not styled you can edit the components right from the OIP.  Check each component to see what the bounds are.

 

If that makes zero sense, post a file with the wall in it.  🙂

oh I can fix it after I draw it but how come new walls still have the same issue?

Like Michael says, edit the Wall Style then the changes will affect all the Walls in the drawing plus all future instances

If you are not using Storys in your drawing make sure you select a Fixed Height Wall Style instead of a Story Bound Wall Style.

 

Or figure out what Story Layer is missing and add that to your drawing.

Sounds good. thank you all!
