**Frame Wall** – frames selected walls or parts from the model according to predefined configuration.

### First time in the project

The first time you click **Frame Wall** in a new project, you will get a message that the framing families are not loaded. You can load them directly from here:

Just click OK:

Framing families can be also loaded using **Wall+** → **Settings** → **Load Families**:

**Wall+** checks the status of selected walls. If there is something wrong with the walls, you will get a detailed report. In the image below, you can see possible report messages.

*Let's solve the problem of wall type **Int - 16+198+13**:*

*To fix these kinds of problems, you usually need to go to **Link Wall** and check the situation:*

***Int - 16+198+13** has framing possibility disabled, so you just need to select the checkbox near the **Frame** column:*

*There is no problem if framing configuration in not assigned to the layer. You can assign it in the **Link Wall** dialog, or **Wall+** will give you this option during the **Frame Wall** process:*

*Selected a sample framing configuration, which automatically comes with **Wall+,** and click OK:*
