Sloped beam system has problem with end location

Hello,

 

I have created a system of beams on a sloped plane. Location in plan is good, symbolic representation good. However when in 3d or fine view, I can see that the ends of the framing elements are beyond the 'end' that I set during the creation of the beam system.

 

Does anyone have any ideas about this? It seems that the framing element nodes are automatically trying to frame into the center of the walls, what I need is for the joists to be flush with the face of wall.  I can solve the issue by un-pinning all of the generated joists and using trim command but I would prefer to know how to solve this issue through the beam system functionality.

 

See screenshots below for reference.

Previously I've just backed the edge of the beam system off the face of the wall as needed to have the joists sit where desired.

Tina,

 

Thanks for the fix. I appreciate that this method works, but the process of guess-check is rather tedious and we have multiple beam systems that need to be adjusted. My feeling is that the end behavior is being affected by the sloped plan that the roof system is on, but I have yet to find a consistent technique to fix this.

 

-P
