Wall components have caps when joining walls with a structural core

[Christiaan]

When joining walls which have a structural core the wall components join with a cap. Is there any way to avoid this?

Don't know, Component Join will fix it but that's a couple of clicks more than you were hoping for I guess.......

Yeah that's right. Do you get the same behaviour?

[Dieter @ DWorks]

I only have this behaviour for the components that use a tile fill. The other are alright. But clean your wall caps before joining, it can help.

One note here....I've had situations where I've used the component join tool to fix these joints and at times I've wanted some components to be square and some to be mitered.

However, later I've modified the texture assigned to the Wall Type and when the walls get replaced as part of the wall type update process...all of my custom component joining goes away and I return to my default wall join.

Very frustrating when tweaking a texture is often the one of the last thing you do long after you thought you were past the floor plan development.

Submitted this to tech support over a year ago. Haven't tested with the latest service pack.

Cleaning before joining is always a good idea but I recently noticed the same issue. Will forget about this for a while and come back later, i usually find a solution that way.
