Smart Wall Cleanup
Posted: Mon Jul 27, 2020 12:08 am
I have 3 Smart Walls connecting at a corner. Any ideas how I can clean up the line shown in the graphic?

First vertical wall = 1-2 then 3 to place,
Second horizontal wall = 3-4 then 5 to place,
Third vertical wall - 6-7 then 8 to place.
Clean = On, Cap = Off in the Architect menu

All I can suggest is to create a covered polyline without outline on, and match the fill colour to the wall fill colour and place it over the wall junction which should print as you need. Not ideal, but a work around in this case.
