Are you by chance trying to attach a nested column within a column family? 

[Base12]

They're just basic, out of the box columns and beams.  Not nested or anything.  It does it to me all the time and regardless of the type of column/beam whenever I try to adjust either column or a beam within proximity of another one they go bonkers and will not behave.  Is there anyway to have "Disallow Join" be the default condition *before* beginning to draw a beam, etc? so that I don't have to dick around with manually disallowing every end of every beam from joining?  I get so frustrated with this stupid software being so fiddly to just do basic stuff.

Given your attached image, mind describing what steps you took/take to create them? Columns first, beams from column to column? Beam first then columns? Model in 3D view or plan view(s)?
