    Unhappy Clean ups not working correctly

    I am using Architectural Desktop 2007 and when I copy windows or doors around my wall clean ups appear incorrect.

    Can someone please help.

    Thank you

    have you tried filet / extend on your walls? if the door / window is too close to a wall it wont clean up neatly also.

    without either a file or a picture i would have a hard time guessing how to fix it.

    First, welcome to the ACA community and congrats on your first post here!

    Some things I will point out.
    Never copy windows or doors. Use Add Selected after picking one and right clicking.
    Placing a door or window too close to the end of a wall or where multiple walls intersect can cause the endcaps to not display correctly.

    Otherwise, we are hard pressed to help without a screen capture or a dwg.

    If you run add selected you have better control over the placement of the doors or windows using the temporary dimensions that pop up. Not like it will cause errors or corruptions, just issues with getting too close to ends of walls and more work in having to adjust their location after placement.
