Two circular walls intersection with a third wall causes strange behaviour in 3D. AC12 edu 2675 int.

Curious...
Does the circular wall have another skin that is not shown due to "partial structure display" being enabled? No coincident wall on another layer or story?

Strange.
I could reproduce this bug easily with AC13 too.

ArchiCAD cannot do a full circular Wall as one element so if breaks it up into two Walls. I think that fact that the two half-circle Walls join at the same point as the inner Wall has something to do with it.

Workaround: If you rotate the two Walls, let's say 90 degrees so the point they join does not coincide with where the third wall joins them, there will not be a problem.

I will report this to GS.
