Good morning everyone!

Revit places CW in a wall "centerline - to - centerline"

Who knows how to reassign a location line of a wall when placing a CW (I want to place it on the wall face).

Please see the image.

I appreciate any help.

Thank you for the reply. Do you mean that there is no way in Revit to define this type of embedment?

 You saved my time - I thought I somehow corrupted my CW  type and was trying to fix it.

We have many CW in the project and we constantly re-design the building (you know how it is).

So, I will continue moving them individually again and again until the developers solve this problem.

This is not a program problem - it is a user issue.  When you place it, you can hit the tab key to place the CW anywhere in conjuntion with another wall.   Then after placement, simply pick the CW and change the temporary dimesion for the setback of the CW from the other wall.
