When building a lot...this happened:   The doors and windows dissappeared! I had to delete the wall the "window" was on and rebuild it - completely messed up my wallpapering! |

You shouldn't have - just exit the lot with save, then enter again. They will appear again. It happened to me a lot of times, because I replace doors and windows each 6-7 days. It's some glitch of the game.

They are correct. It's a teeny-weeny bug. Exiting and re-entering would have fixed it.

Actually, you don't even need to exit. Simply click on buy mode, and they reappear. This happens to me a lot, both when building and sometimes when changing levels during play.

The only time I've seen this happen is while saving, they disappear for a moment then return to normal.

I've seen this happen when I was on a different level than I thought I was. But, yes, buy mode usually brings them right back.

I have that happen if I have moveobjects on and/or boolprop snapObjectsToGrid false while placing doors or windows. It's easy to get them not quite properly aligned with the walls. I also echo the comment about accidentally placing them on the wrong level...  |

Playing in wall-down mode can cause windows to disappear and be replaced by holes in walls. To fix this, switch to cutaway mode or higher.

What I personally do is remove the roof prior to adding a new section to the house, it does help for me.
Going out of build mode, lower a floor down, save, and then go up a floor does the trick too most of the time.

You don't have to remove anything and that won't help. Just switch to one of the visible-wall modes and the problem should resolve itself.

Oh well thanks Pescado, I was going into too much trouble for nothing. I will from now on do it the way you suggest.
