Proper graphic for walls joining?

Ivan Myers

I have an existing wall joining a new wall and for the life of me I cant get them to show in plan properly.  The attached image is what keeps showing.

What is the trick?

Thanks

It should only be a problem when there are more than 2 walls involved (they can be in hidden layers as I suspect in the image you show).

Usually with more walls involved it can be solved with the junction order or by moving the reference lines around so they do/don't touch other walls.

Hi Ivan,

for me it looks that you might have two things happening here:

  1. There is some kind of hidden element/object on hidden layer;
  2. There is an object which is higher that cutting line and walls are intersecting with it;
  3. Wall baselines should be changed - try to play with those.

 

 

Best

Thanks for the reply. And sorry for my late reply.  I ended up using a masking fill and called it good.
