You can eliminate the exterior line by reversing (or centering) the reference line of the interior wall.
Wall intersections can be tricky and could still stand some improvement. They have been getting better with each release of the program. I hope that in AC9 all contiguous, coplanar surfaces of the same material will clean up. Until then I suggest that you learn a bit more about the techniques (or ask) before you rant about the limitations of the software.
BTW: Really tricky wall intersections can usually be handled with polywalls.

The problem is none of your solutions worked for me. In my experimentation, I NEVER was able to make the walls clean up properly in 2D and 3D for the example in the posted image

Mine clean perfectly even though at different heights and different width. You just have to make sure where the intersections and the reference lines are. It only took one minute to verify that everything cleaned ok, but I agree that even though wall intersections are improving, I should not have to spend that minute making sure. I know that in AC07 intersections were sometines a pain but since AC08 I have had no problems.

Michael wrote:Yes I did, see attached, but I had to rearrange the walls differently see the floorplan on my other post and this one, since I did get the same extra line you mention. Right now I am using 8.1R2 USA but I never had any particular problem with 8.1R1 that I remember Sometimes to make it work you just have to stretch the wall not to the reference line but the other one (not in bold) and let AC clean it up.
ejrolon,
Were you able to make the walls clean in both directions?
What usually happens to me it that I am able to move the extra line from one face to the other but not eliminate it. I can't tell because line elevation only shows one direction and the 3D view is rendered (which does not show contour lines) not internal 3D Engine w/ contours. From my experience under this scenario I would always get an extra line on the wall of the A/C Closet perpendicular to the elevation displayed in your attached image. Maybe this is promising.
Also, what version do you use? I use US 8.1.0 v1 USA (Haven't upgrade to v2 because I am concerned about the bugs reported on this forum).
