Could anyone please check the enclosed model? Part of the wall is not shown correctly in block mode. In zone mode I can see the wall and the windows. There is also no snap to corners at this areas.
Thank you, Gerhard

Dear Gerhard,

I assume you were talking about Zone 1, 3 and 12. I've used DB v1.3.1.001 and loaded your model.
First of all, always keep in mind working with copies and have your model safely backed up.

In the next step, I've selected from the 'Tools' menu the option 'Rebuild all buildings' which took quite a while due to the high resolution of the zoning concept. After that, all three zones were (unavoidably) merged with Zone 12. Zooming into Zone 12 revealed, that the adjacent partitions do not completely extend to the exterior wall. Thus, adding a small piece in these partitions separates Zone 12 into three zones and is displayed correctly in edit and visualize mode.

Best regards,

Sandro

Dear Gerhard,

I hope that Sandro's comments helped. As he points out, the way to fix this model is to use the 'Rebuild all buildings' command.

Hopefully this will allow you to continue with your modelling. Please let us know if you need any further assistance with this.

Regards,

Andy
