reconcile wall length with inside room dimensions
I'm a fairly newbie sweet home user. not sure how to reconcile inside wall dimensions when I have created my home plan wall by wall, please see below, the inside wall dimension is 14' 3" the length I have given to the wall but when I measure out the same distance, the ruler is longer than the walls inside dimension.


it would seem I have to give the wall property a greater length than the actual inside dimension. the walls width is 4.5" for a 2x4 with sheet rock on either side. however the exterior walls will be 5.25" for 2x4 with 3/4" sheathing and 1" of stucco

is there some way to tell sweet home a wall length is the finished inside dimension?
