Remove the door and keep the opening

This topic was asked in 2015 but I couldn´t find a solution. I need to mark many doors as demolished, and when I do, then the opening is filled with a new wall. Then I select a door opening and place it where the filled opening is, and then I have a fill of a color that I can´t find where it come from. When I hide only the demolished elements in the renovation filter option, then the fill dissapears. That should means the fills comes from the demolished door, so I checked the renovation filters once again and nothings point to a fill of this color. Maybe somebody see what I am doing wrong.

In the Graphic Override Rules for the demolished elements, you probably have the 'Cover/Uncut Fill Types' option turned on with a non-empty fill chosen as the override.
