Have started a new build whereas I pasted in the building from another project file. I didn't establish any building parameters in the "New Project Setup" screen thinking that everything established in the other file would transfer over into the new project. All building aspects pasted fine, but there is no floor in the new pasted version. All exterior walls are established, windows, doors, etc. - however I can't seem to get the ground floor to showcase a floor or an ability to showcase dimension, area, etc. What have I overlooked and what needs to be done to fix this?

Hi there,

There can be several reasons for this type of problem. This is the most common one:

The exterior walls in Punch have important functions and one of them is the exterior perimeter definition because they define what is the exterior space and what is the interior space.
In order to set this, Punch needs an exterior wallset, perfectly closed. If you join the walls using the arrow in your keyboard, the exterior walls will be together, but perhaps they are not fused => if you join the exterior walls using the mouse they will be really fused.
If the wallset is not a closed perimeter (with fused walls), your Punch program doesn't know what is exterior or interior.... and the grass will be inside of the house.

Hope this helps
