Magic Wand not detecting fully enclosed walls

[Mykee]

Has something changed in AC26 regarding the magic wand? I am trying to add a slab within a wall envelope (fully closed reference lines. and it's simply not detecting it. Its only highlighting and detecting underlying slabs and fills but not walls? I've tested with a simplistic box enclosure and the Wand simply doesn't detect it it just throws up the "Region not Found" error (image attached). Ive fiddled with the Wand settings with no avail....

I managed to reproduce the "operator error" 😉

The way I did it may not be what is causing your problem.   Basically, I tried to place a slab that was going to end up in a place where there are no walls actually surrounding it -- even though were I was placing it I could see the walls.  Its a matter of assigned floors and what is and is not visible.   Hard to explain but you get the idea I am sure.  I extended some walls on the first floor up to through the second floor, were visible on the third floor, but the bottom of the walls were above where I was placing the slab.

Projected walls do not count as boundaries as far as I know. Unsure what will happen if your change your walls to symbolic cut, magic wand your area, then change your walls back to projected.
