45-degree Composite Wall clean-up

[Anonymous]

I thought that I was savy enough to figure out the combination in order to get this wall configuration to clean-up, but I have come up lacking.

Any help would be appreciated.

What are the priority settings on the skins? Is the "Use skin priorities" setting turned on in those walls?

"Enable Skin Priorities" is checked if that is what you mean.

The 45-degree wall offset is set to 1/2", The others are set to "0". I tried all the walls set to "0" with no success either.

Saw here Ben was headed with the Off-set. I set all the walls to a 1/2" off set. Closer to clean....

This is an example of why we have/need Patches. Just use one and be done with it.

Richard is right, intersections of this type will fail often. You might wring a solution out of one, but the next one is intractable. Every project has intersections that don't clean up. We're all accustomed to this situation, but that doesn't make it right.

Composite cleanup is fundamental and it's embarrassingly poor. Use a patch, get your work done, but demand better.

Patches work great... until you move something and have to re-create them all over again.
