Wall cleanup question

[acastana06]

In this situation the interior layers of each wall are always of function "Finish2[5]", and the material is always Gypsum Wall Board (GWB). I would expect that the correct way to cleanup this situation is the way it cleans-up in the case of the top horizontal wall joining with the vertical wall: Even if the vertical wall has 2 layers of GWB, both layers cleanup with the one GWB layer of the top horizontal wall.

The anomaly is at the intersection of the vertical wall with the bottom horizontal wall; in this case only one GWB layer from the vertical wall cleans-up with the GWB layer of the bottom horizontal wall.

Any idea why that may be? and how to convince it to cleanup like it did in the case of the vertical wall with the top horizontal wall?

Many thanks in advance

Finish 2 [5] over Finish 1 [4]  doesn't work for you?  

...you could always disallow auto join and manually join then using Join Geometry.

"Finish 2 [5] over Finish 1 [4]  doesn't work for you?". I am not sure what you mean by this question, but hoping that I answer it, I will say that all Finish Layers for all those walls are "Finish2 [5]" (and that is how I prefer to have it).

Going to the "Wall Joins" tool, disallowing the join, and then manually joining via the "Join Geometry" tool worked for me. Now all joins are as expected.

So, problem solved, but in the interest of my own education (:D) any idea why auto joining failed in this case?

Thank you.
