How to make the new phase show on top of the existing phase

Hi,

I would like to know how to make the new phase show on top of the existing phase. In other words, that the new phase prevails over the existing one (which should already be the case by default!) and that the junction between these two walls should graphically be like the new phase, i.e. a solid black line.

New empty model
Default phases
Two identical walls where only their creation phase has been modified

Demolition phase for walls = none

View/Phase: New construction
View/Phase filter: Existing and new

 

You know in plan designing and for me, this is OBVIOUS!

 

It's also happening in sections when the new concrete meets the existing concrete... It is then necessary to manually trace ALL JUNCTIONS in black detail lines...

 

EDIT:

Seems like with the print out (PDF) they show black lines junctions (!)
But I recently annotate this to my collegue on their PDFs... "to draw line on the junction" so I don't understand where this is happening or not... 

🤔
I think that I just have to be careful that new wall ENDS on the face of the existing and that they interact with each other

If I use Disallow Join on the new wall I get this result in the view and it prints as desired.
