I have an exterior stack wall.  It is intersected on each end by the same identical wall.  On the "good" end, it miters in plan and has a seamless corner in 3D and elevation view.  On the "bad" end, it does not miter in plan and you see butt seams in the wall in 3D and elevation.  All three are attached to the same roof, all three have the same base, same pre-set height before attachment, they are identical walls.  Does anyone have any ideas why one end miters and the other doesn't?  Anyone?

I am also having another stack wall problem in the same wall.  Maybe they could be related.  I have cut "openings" in the wall to appear like control joints.  The openings work great in the stack wall except the opening height stops about 2/3 vertically in the 2nd stack wall.  Not quite the realistic look I was looking for.  I went with the "opening" method of replicating a control joint when trimming the walls, 3/4" apart sometimes created the gap and sometimes created a "joined condition", again, without any seeming rhyme or reason.

Are there inherent problems with stack walls that causes these kind of crazy things to go on?

Attached is the image of the end wall elevation.  The right hand end of this wall is where the mitering problem is occurring.  The right corner was not mitered correctly in plan BUT this gable wall was attached to the roof correctly.  I attempted to trim/miter the corner again and half of this wall un-connected itself from the roof and the other half stayed connected.  This is one unbroken wall that has changed half of its roof attachment when one end of the wall "attempts" to be mitered.  The corner is still not mitered correctly in plan but now my end wall elevation is screwed up.  Is there some bug in Revit that just happens with stack walls that I don't know about?
