I can't figure this out .... I have reason to make a small garage into a hybrid symbol. When I insert walls inside (using, copy-paste), as part of the symbol, the height of the wall changes immediately upon pasting. I try to manipulate the heights of various wall components (like the siding) and it does not respond in the same manner as it does when the same wall style type is not part of the symbol. The same behavior occurs when I simply draw the wall using the wall tool while in the "edit symbol" mode. I try to change the wall height in the OIP and by using the wall components in the wall style resource. The height may change, but not in the same way as it does when the wall is not part of the garage symbol. I try using "stories" but I am a novice at using "stories" and I suspect it is operator error/ignorance. Can anyone confirm if the action of placing a wall as part of a hybrid symbol results in unpredictable wall and component height behavior ? .... or ... confirm that i simply don't know what I'm doing.
