Variance Between Doll House and Framing Views

I'm trying to design a barn-style structure with 16' walls on the perimeter.  The interior walls will only be 9';  picture an office structure in a warehouse.  The E, S, and W walls of the barn will form three walls of the residence;  the fourth wall will be a 9' wall basically bifurcating the building.  South of that wall will be the residence;  North of the wall will be a high-clearance garage.  When I view either of the dollhouse views (perspective or orthographic), the plan displays what I envisioned.  I would say it displays correctly but, given that I'm a complete neophyte with this software, that would be a bit presumptuous.  When I display either of the framing views, however, the ceiling at 9' and what would be the second-story floor extend the entire width of the building. 

 

This was drawn using a single-story building and 96" shelf ceilings in the residence.

 

In my former life two presentations of the same drawing reflecting different results was not a good thing.  However, this may be ESO . . . equipment superior to operator.  Is this the correct approach to doing walls of differing heights or should I have treated this as a two-story building and worked through the problems I ran into with that form factor?  That was:  I had to leave the second-story portion of the divider wall in place and make the "second story" of the garage "open below" or the floor would extend to the N wall.  Essentially the same problem but it displayed that way in both dollhouse and framing views.  And, since it's just the one wall rather than a room, I couldn't figure out a way to reduce the height to make it large enough to stop the ceiling from extending but small enough to not exist.

Well, that makes a lot more sense than changing each.  and.  every.  room.  to the 96" height.  :)  But . . . it still displays one way in dollhouse (i.e. tall garage) and the other in framing.  I'll get with support on Monday.  Thanks for the help, @Solver.
