Wall height

Anonymous — Wed, 29 Jan 2025 16:48:08 GMT

Greetings all,
I am learning ArchiCAD V9 and will be greatful indeed if someone could help me with a bit of information.
I have drawn in the walls for a house and set the wall height at 2700 mm. However when i view the drawing in the 3D window the wall appears to have no height at all. ( sorry about the dumb question and i am using the tutorial but can't seem to put that right )
Attached is a screen grab of the drawing in the 3D window.
Kindest thanks for any help..

Regards

John Venediger

My apologies .. this thread should have been in the new users forum

Let's see the wall settings window. More likely to give us some clues

in addition to seeing the wall settings dialogue (with one of your walls selected), i'd like to know just how big the slab is . . . if all of your walls are indeed 2700 high, i would suspect that the slab is at fault: i.e. drawn absolutely massive, possibly by a factor of 10?!

Many thanks Ben and John ,

not to sure what I did but the walls are now visible , this happen when I zoomed in and out with the editing motion / turn tool , I must be clicking the wrong buttons somewhere …
The size of the slab is 26000 x 13000 x 100 mm , all walls were set to a height of 2700 mm

Kind regards

John
