[G-Pang]

Just Wondering...How to end wall + cavity lines with proper end cap.

May be I miss something or the feature doesn't exist.

The capability doesn't exist unfortunately - I wish it did.

How I overcome it is to:

- Draw a wall across the end as for the exterior component (eg 110 bwk) making it longer than the joining wall width.

- Make a T wall join.

- Stretch both ends of the end wall so that its length exactly matches the joining wall width.

It is something I only do at working drawing stage when I am trying to make the walls look correct. It is better not to do it at the design modelling stage as it complicates things too much and introduces additional lines which have to be dealt with in section and elevation views )particularly when these are converted to lines).

There is also the quick and dirty option of drawing a 2D filler polygon with no line thickness over the cavity to simulate the outer skin returning. This method usually requires a bit of tweaking to get it right
