Here the settings are binary, they just need to be different not higher or lower.

Here is what I did,
I made a new layer for new walls and made its intersecting layer number 2. Once I move the new walls to the new layer, even the line that I was able to hide with changing priority shows up.
Different idea needed? or is there something I missed?

If you don't want a line, then you can make the fill backgrounds for the two walls identical.
Alternatively you can play with the display order, select wall with the ine , right click and send back/backwards etc.

If I use the wall setting to change the fill of new walls, then lines between walls show up. I try not to miss AutoCad because I think working with BIM makes more sense, but I really need help.
There are a lot of complaints about renovation tool override in this forum; it simply doesn't work. I tried so many times, but the only thing that works with the renovation override is line type and color. Is this problem still not fixed? or am I not just not using Archicad right?
In short, I want walls with different fill patterns to intersect cleanly as if they had the same fill pattern. Please help.

There are no lines between walls with different fill hatch pattern. As soon as I change the fill pattern of a wall in ArchiCAD, however, the walls no longer connect cleanly. The walls do not join as if they were in different layers.
So, how do I connect/intersect/join walls with different fill hatch pattern? (just like the pic attached)
I understand AutoCAD drawing is made out of just 2d lines, and ArchiCAD is BIM. But if I can't even simply remove a line from a drawing, there's no way the boss architect would want to use ArchiCAD. I'm really trying to pitch in with the effectiveness of a BIM software, but I need help!
Thanks in advance.
