Is there a way to extend the finish material only (Brick, stone or siding) on a wall type to cover the finish material on the wall it is intersecting? I have a job where the front wall of a garage is stone veneer and the side walls are brick and I need the stone to cover the ends of the brick. Please point me to the topic if I have missed it on the forum.

 

Thank you,

In framing mode, select the wall you want to extend to the corner and "Form Corner"

You could also try TOOLS > ADJUST WALL MATERIAL > BUTT
 
This tool allows you to select the individual materials within the wall definition and extend them out to butt into others.

Click the material you want to adjust, and then click the face of the material you want it to adjust to.

That was it Keith and I knew it but had forgotten it. At my age learning the program isn't going to be easy. You learn so much so quickly and then you forget that information as you learn new information. I'm lucky to have remembered how to insert walls. Wait.........let me go check that before I finish this post! :)
