Composite slanted wall intersection

xissburg — Mon, 29 Jul 2024 18:59:45 GMT

I have two slanted walls intersecting and only the external material intersects correctly. A hole is present on the inside. What am I missing?

Thank you!

Operating system used: Windows 22H2

Hi @xissburg,

Are they the same (thickness & slant angle)?

They're the exact same Generic Exterior Wall.

The slant angle is different though.

If you complete the whole polygon would you find the same problem?

Sorry but I don't know what "complete the whole polygon means". These are just two walls that join exactly at their reference lines.

I mean if you could replicate this intersection in another place would you reproduce the same problem?

I built a new slanted wall and intersected with the existing and now it works correctly. No idea why it wasn't working with that wall. Those two particular walls for some reason don't want to intersect correctly. When I try it with new walls it works... must be a misterious bug somewhere.

Fine, it's working now.

I suggest you can try doing 2 things:

1) Turn on all your layers and show all in 3D you may find an old-modelled element interfering with those walls.

2) If you provide more details in your signature about your Ac ver. & Build no. also your operating system and commuter specs it'd be more beneficial for others to help you if it's a bug.
