Trouble with allow join wall

Hello!

I create walls in revit.

If I use Disallow join for my walls, I get walls like a picture:

If I use Allow join for my walls, I get walls like a picture:

I think it's happened because of Revit wrong join walls.

Can I create walls with Allow Join, but witout automatical transformation wall with Revit?

Do you want the first or the second result?

If the aim is to create a single wall conforming to an arc why not create a single wall?

If you know from your location lines that they are all arcs, that they all share the same centre point and radius why not get the max and min angles and create a single arc:

Arc.Create(XYX, Radius, Min Angle, Max Angle, XYZ.Basis.X, XYZ.Basis.Y).

When you disallow join that is the occasion where Revit should not try to drag the ends around to join things so there is probably something else going on.

Maybe I didn't explain correctly. The problem is that when I build a wall with "Allow Join" Revit transforms it by changing its shape to the wrong one.
