Embedded walls: incomplete cut at corner

I'm having some issues getting the corners to cut properly for embedded walls.

This is the case when the corner is at an angle other then 90°. There's a sliver of wall which remains.

Any idea's how to resolve this, other then creating a void?

This is a rather large project (10 stories several cornerwindows), so I want to avoid having to use model-in-place.

Face based void family?

Edit Profile?

We've used a void family in another project with angled walls, but the problem with this is, you don't "see" the family. This resulted in a lot of error warnings when modifing the walls.

 

I try not to use edit profile is it affects the wall joins as well.

 

Maybe this issue needs to be added to the Revit Ideas pages as an improvement.

Using a void family including symbol lines with visibility settings (e.g. only visible in coarse) or set in a 'special' sub-category so that you can make the void family visible when needed?

An workaround using stacked walls at corners.

Thanks for the tip.

Using stacked walls works really well.
