walls have random holes in them when drawing them on a morph (landscape with elevations)

Hi

I got a document that was fully drawn in morphs (a landscape with elevations and building volumes).

When I want to draw a wall on here the wall has random holes in it, random sections of the wall are cut out then.

Does anybody have an idea how to fix this?

Thank you!

Axelle

Turn all of your layers on and you will probably find slabs that are intersecting with your walls.

If the slab building material is stronger than the wall building material, it will cut a hole in the wall.

Great.

So now if the slabs need to be there, you can make the building material used weaker than the BM in the walls (or make the wall's BM stronger).

 

Or you can place the walls and slabs in separate layers (which they already are) and then in the layer settings change the Layer Group Intersection number so it is different for each layer.

Remember to change this also in your layer combinations.
