Thag:
You are correct, it looks like one end of the Beam looks for the adjacent Beam's reference line when the opposite end is edited. One option is to stretch the length of the Beam away from the other Beams, then move the Beam back in place, but the same connection will occur if the Beam is later edited. Another option is to place the Reference Lines of the perimeter Beams on their inside face, and place the interior Beams on a different layer that has a different Layer Intersection Group number (Help Files: Configuration > Attributes > Layers > Use Layers to Prevent Intersections).
