Solid Element Operator removing elements that are NOT targets

Hi. I am having trouble with the SEOs - I have them (basement floor slabs) only targeting a site morph, but they are also affecting walls above. Any ideas? Thx.

Have you checked the morph material (Priority Based Connections) isn't stronger than the walls?

Some screen shots might help explain what is being affected.

You should read about Priority Based Intersections between elements:

https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/88747/#XREF_55744_Wall_Beam_Wall

If a Slab intersects a Wall, a connection will be automatically be created between them.
When a Slab and a Morph intersect, no automatic connection is created between them, which is why you need to use SEO.
