Merging Walls - Help!!

[griggadee]

Hi folks,

Could you please have a look at the picture attached and tell me how to successfully merge these walls together so that there are no gaps at any point where they join?

I have tried everything but am unable to get a clean join between all three elements.

Thanks,

Paul

Thanks Laszlonagy.

I have tried this method a few times now and I still don't seem to be able to get the column to cut itself out of the walls. I have even tried it with new plain walls with background fills and yet it doesn't seem to be happening for me. You don't know of any video examples out there do you?

I will try it again soon once I have met my current deadline.

Thanks again,

Anyway, David, I have created the wall composites that you see on the JPEGs and so the problem is not in there as all of the walls feature the same composite, and the 'enable skin properties' box is already ticked. Neither of which seem to sort the problem but thanks anyway.

You also need to adjust the Skin Priority of each skin in the Composite Structure dialog box.

Bravo David! Spot on mate!

I had prioritised the outer layers before thinking that they would come to the top and show over the insulation but when that didn't work, I foolishly didn't try prioritising the insulation layer over the outer layers! So simple and obvious and yet I completely missed it!

Thank you very very much!
