Composite Wall corner cleanup

Hi!

I've created 2 pretty simple composite wall types.

1. represents an 8" core ICF block wall
2. represents a 10" core ICF block wall

The foam wall thickness of the block is the same for both types.

When I have a corner situation where a 10" wall meets an 8" wall, there is a short section at the exterior corner that doesn't clean up correctly. See the attached image below for reference... What can I do differently to get it to clean up correctly?

Thank you!

Tom

Hi Tom,

Please select the wall; right-click and choose Edit Selected Composite (Also in Options > Element Attributes > Composites). Turn on or change the pen for the Skin End Line of the given skin.

Thank you Nicholas. That worked great! For whatever reason, I'd never run into that before in my use of composites. Always learning!

should this clean up method work if the walls were drawn on center?
