Hi Jo_Ann,
You seem like a nice person.
Actually, when I edited the defaults for the interior walls like he suggested it made all of the interior walls extend through the roof. And when I edited the wall that I'm looking to make 8' 3" it did the same thing. Not all of us are pros with this software, it sounds that you are though. Maybe you could offer some help instead of a snarky comment. That might be more beneficial.
