    Default ACA - Wall custom justification line?

    Dear sirs,

    I'm working on a custom template and I'm struggling with setting up a specific justify line for my wall type.



    The current justify line is makred BLUE.
    The target justify line is makred RED.

    Is there a way to do so?

    Thank you

    If you define your Wall such that the Baseline is is at the "red" line in your image, you can use Baseline justification to achieve your desired result.

    To do that, assuming your first component is the one at the top of your image (between the "blue" and "red" lines), give that component a positive width and set the Edge Offset to 0. Give the next component (stud/wall core?) a positive width and make the Edge Offset the negative of that width. The thin component would need an Edge Offset with a negative value, the absolute value of which is the sum of the widths of the stud/core component and the thin component. The final component's Edge Offset would be the negative of the sum of the widths of the stud/core component, thin component and the final component.

    If the first component is on the bottom, then the Edge Offset will need to be the sum of the widths of the thin component and the stud/core component, with a positive width. The thin component will need an Edge Offset equal to the width of the stud/core component and the stud/core component would have an Edge Offset of zero. The final component would need a negative Edge Offset, the absolute value equal to the width of that component.
