    Hi Bob ... the solution may just be a "forehead slapper". Consider using the break wall tool on your custom double wall on either side of the north side wall, and then simply reverse layers for the short segment of your custom double wall so that the main layer is toward the connecting wall. Any potential wall texture issues can be solved as David showed in his earlier video by either the Room Specification dialog or an individual Wall Specification dialog.

    Hope this helps.

    Elovia, I tried that some time back, but for some reason when applied; the other remaining walls that previously had been penetrating the chase wall, after being fixed, again penetrated the CW. With this last post and recommendation to use the break wall tool and reverse layers, I attempted again. Had to play with it some, but must have found that magical distance, for once I moved the break closer to each side of the offending wall, it finally worked. Then I reversed the layers and it is finally fixed. OH, bummer. Now a new probelem appears. This one I'm sure is my fault (but I can figure out how it happened) and I can't fix it. I was trying to use the cad tools as DJP suggested, and after placing cad lines that didn't work, I tried it again, but this time I must have selected point instead of line, and now this point appears. Yes, I've tried enlarging, selecting, etc., but I cannot get it to select so I can delete it. I did attempt to find a help using key words like "Cad" "line" "point" etc,. but haven't found a way to remove it. So; one issue resolved, now a new issue. I din't want to do an "Un-do" because I don't know how far back I would have to go before (if at all) I get rid of it. Then I would have to go back through the entire tiring process!
    Thanks for sticking with me.

    I didn't mentioned that I even tried deleting the wall, selecting the "X" point and deleting but that didn't work. I even did a break wall on each side of the "X" deleted that section, the "X" just WILL NOT go away.

    I tried one more thing, that is printing the floor plan. When I did a print preview the "X" is not there. I printed it out and the "X" is still not there, however; when looking at the plan on screen the "X" is there. It isn't that big a problem as long as it does not print out. I'd still like to find a way to delete it, but at least it isn't showing up in the "print" or "print preview".

    Another "Head slapping" answer. I guess it was too simple to find the answer= menu item ... CAD -> Points -> Delete Temporary Points worked. How many time did I open that menu and looked right past it!!! Some times we look TOO HARD. THanks
