HI, everyone. Thank you for the responses. Trying to understand your advice... I built it as a railing but when I saw the height was greyed out on the newels/balusters, I added a 5" inch wall. Rookie65, I think I understand what you're saying, but when I search to add a post, I get all sorts of weird columns. Not just a 5x5 piece of wood / a beam. y-g-m-n, I created this house plan over 2 years ago and just came back to it now that we're ready to re-do the living room. I honestly can't even find that setting -- although it would be different at the sides versus in the middle, right? Garybills, it would make lots of sense to use a wall, but I'm at a loss to understand how a shelf is used here. Any more detail? Thanks all!

I did a whole kitchen redesign and figured out everything I needed. Now we're starting to redesign the living room and I have one situation I just can't seem to fix. I have the ceiling beams working okay, but there's a supporting half wall which you can see in the picture where I can't get the vertical beams to reach to the upper beam. There's just no options to change the height on it. It's like it knows where the ceiling would have been and stops there. Can anyone help? Thanks!

I watched the video on modifying materials and then copied the satin finish shiplap to my User Catalog. Edited it to change the orientation from horizontal to vertical and then changed the board width from 6 inches to 3 inches. Used the material painter on the wall and it looks great, except that it's still 6 inches wide. Searched the forums but found nothing helpful. Any ideas? Thanks!
