Load Bearing Elements Only Shows Windows

I don't understand why windows is displayed when I've selected "core of load bearing elements only" in the partial structure display dialog box

I've also edited the windows and doors to be "non load bearing", "exterior" objects.

To turn off windows in the 3D use the Filter Elements in 3D dialogue, available from the context menu of the 3D window tab, or I think you can also use MVO to hide windows.

Yes, thank you; I figured that out;)

Also, it's not showing slabs. Are slabs not part of load bearing elements?

Are the Slabs correctly assigned as Load Bearing? And are the Slabs composites with at least one skin defined as Core?
