I can't figure out how to show a screen shot of this, so I'll try to explain.

I have 2 foundation walls that meet each other - like an "L". I want the long wall to be full height and the short end to be half height. I can get the height of the walls fine, but Revit keeps on overlapping the half height wall over the long wall (i.e. streching the short wall to the long wall's exterior face). This makes the end of the long wall half height.

I want the short wall to stop at theend of the long wall at the interior face... can anyone please help?

I can't seem to drag the walls to force them to where I want, because no matter how I set up the snap, the short wall streches to the exterior side every time I grab it and strech it to the interior side.

I've tried the 'End Wall Joints' command but all this does it switch back and forthe between miter and butt (the wrong way).

Thanks a lot!
