composite wall corner in plan

When three walls meet at a corner one of the walls does not clean up correctly.

See Cecilias post for a good explanation of skin priorities.

Also check if the wall reference lines meet correctly.

I think that the problem I am having is different. The wall reference lines can not meet up because it is at a corner where the thiner wall has a reference line that misses the reference line for the thicker wall

Your walls need to have this relationship (note location of reference lines):

OK, but what if I want to keep the reference lines for exterior walls on the outside?

Often cutting and pasting the odd wall will fix a problem like this, but the walls reference lines will definitely need to meet. The reference lines can either be on the edge of the wall or offset within the wall, using the same 'reference line offset' for both, assuming they both have the same skin thickness.

You can use the reference line offset in wall settings to move the interior walls reference line to be in line with the exterior walls. In my example below, it's 7 1/4". The black lines with arrows are the reference lines
