Turn on your wall reference lines. My guess is that they don't connect, thus the walls don't clean up as you would like.

The central skin of your internal wall (with the door) is offset past the same skin in the external corner wall.
That is why they will not connect as you are expecting.

Is that exactly as it would be constructed - with the offset of the central wall skin?
This is just a difficult connection to control automatically so I would just hide it with a few fills.
Your other wall connections seem fine so it is just something that will not work in this particular situation.

If the 3D does not look very good either you could create a complex profile column for that corner connection.
This way you can arrange the fills as you want them to trim and create a column form it.
Place the column on the corner and that should cut and trim the walls successfully in both plan and 3D.

Thank you Barry very much. I hide this elements with morph, line and column functions. Looks great.
