Using Home Designer 6 Pro, please click Edit > Default Settings > Wall Defaults > Wall.
Select a wall type that you will not be using in the plan. Click the "Define" button. In this window, you can rename the wall type, insert and delete layers for this wall type, as well as specify layer thickness and material.
I am not a builder, so I had to find an example of a lathe and plaster wall online. In the example I found, the wall consisted of the vertical stud framing layer, then the horizontal lathe layer, with the plaster on the exterior surface.
Assuming this is an interior wall, you will have 5 wall layers:
plaster
lathe
framing stud
lathe
plaster
Since the lathe is not the framing layer, please bear in mind that you will not see the lathe in a Framing Overview camera view.Matthew Sande
