Walls & Columns will not trim

Anonymous

I have a problem with walls and columns not trimming. I am working on a church project. Some walls will trim to roof. Others will not. What am I missing? ?

The wall or column must intersect or extend beyond the top of the roof to be trimmed.

Trimming to roof will not cause a wall or column or any other element to grow to meet the roof.

Erika,

thanks for the response. Sometimes it is the simple things that are hardest to see. Turns out there were multiple walls and columns copied over each other. Walls were tall enough. Just too many of them!!

thanks again

When learning archicad I recommend checking for duplicates periodically.

Glad it was so easy.
