So, I'm new to Home Designer (Pro 2024). I'm working on my bathroom remodel and I'm looking to create an extremely common bathroom feature: a partial height wall that can be used as a shelf and place to change tile types. A super simple 3-foot high section of wall that is butted up against the full height wall (see attached example).
I've tried using the half wall feature but it really does create a half wall, it creates a railing that somehow builds a wall into the railing. No matter what I tried, no matter what guidance I get from the knowledge database, I end up with a railing on top or it reverts to a full height wall.
I am looking for any guidance that I can get to create this super simple construction.
Thanks!
Creating an ACTUAL half wall...not a railing

Hi Eric,
What you've shown is exactly what I want to do! Unfortunately, I keep getting this solids railing on top of the half wall. I read one bit of feedback in the forum that suggested you simply need to uncheck the Specify Railing box but when I do that I get a full height wall. I found some guidance for creating a parapet wall that suggested that you could make the width of the solid railing the same as the wall and reduce height to whatever you want for a top cap on the wall. But I still get a wooden railing of the same width and depth but it raises it off the top of the wall by the height I nominated (see the attached image).
I would have attached my plan file as you recommended but it exceeds the max file size of 14MB.
Thanks!
