    Default Joining Channels to Angles sends components skewing at odd angles. (REVIT Struct 2012)

    Having issues joining the back face of a channel to the leg of an angle. Please see screen shots below. If you are in section and try to move the channel closer to the steel angle the vertical steel angle skews out so that it attaches to the bottom of the channel. Is this related to analytical model? I have found that changing the work plane to be the face of the leg of the angle and drawing a new channel works, but that is the worst work around when trying to do production. Essentially redrawing everything that needs to be tweaked. The following have been tried in an attempt to modify the behavior:

    Changing the work plane
    Aligning vs moving
    Moving vs. Aligning
    Turning off analytical model
    Turning on stick symbols

    There must clearly be a setting having to do with attachment, or the analytical model that is forcing the components join in such a strange way.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I've attached screen shots and Revit model of the condition.

    Thanks!
