I create two identical slabs abutting each other and then create a wall that runs over the junction. The plan view shows the slab junction running through the wall. How do you either dot the line under the wall or get the line to stop and start on either side?
Secondly, am I correct in assuming that when I create a full height wall and, say a 300mm high wall next to it, both show up as cut and that I need to manually change the low height wall the show up as a top new?i didn't quite follow the last line of your question, but the wall display is dependent on a few settings:

Same goes with the slab/wall plan view. You would think in 95% of cases of drawing a wall on a slab you would want to see the slab line hidden or dotted......
