Opening Tool - issues at wall outside corner

artktecture — Tue, 09 May 2023 13:49:21 GMT

I have 2" stucco walls that I'm trying to use the opening tool to wrap a 1" reveal around the corner in the stucco. I'm having issues where the openings do not cut out all of the wall. No matter how I set the wall reference line or opening settings there are 2 little bits of stucco left at the corner. Any ideas?

Each Opening is linked to both walls? And since your wall is a composite, if the reference line is on structure, do the Openings extend to the external face?

Thanks, I did not have the openings cutting both walls. That creates the proper reveal however I end up with some unwanted visible lines that I can not seem to get rid of.

I created the stucco reveal on the bottom with the wall niche tool and it seems to work much easier than the wall opening tool with no unwanted visible lines. It's much easier to constrain and drag for length.
