Bulkhead and door question - Cosmographer

HelenAA

I'm plodding on with Deckplans, thanks to Monsen and others, and have noticed that the door symbols aren't breaking into my bulkheads (walls?). They just sit on the bulkheads - see atached .fcw file - and I don’t know why.

Seems to work fine for me in your drawing, but notice this:

• Turn of snap when placing cutting symbols. Snaps modifies placement, which often lead to the symbol not aligning/cutting correctly
• I found at least one bulkhead in your drawing that were doubled up with two bulkheads on top of each other. The cutting symbol will only cut one, leaving the other, making it appear as if nothing were cut.
• Some of the symbols only cut the size of the actual door portion of the symbol, and not the doorframe, this can also lead to an initial appearance of not being cut until you look closer.

For stubborn walls, happens occasionally, I have to hide all but walls, and then use the wall cutting symbol. Then place the door.
