joining of intersecting walls

I am using Chief Architect X7. Why don't all the walls join up as a solid when I try to join an internal wall perpendicular to a point where two external walls meet? There seems to be a gap extending from the base of the 200mm wide internal wall where it meets the 300mm wide external walls. I am tracing over a pdf but it seems to be the same when free-drawing also. See attached image.

This is what I see in X7:

You can sort-of fix it using the Edit Wall Layer Intersections tool:

...however you see that the drywall intersection is still wonky (I turned off Walls, Main Layer Only to show this).

 

If you upgrade to X8, things get a little better:

rlackore - Although I followed your advice using the 'edit wall layer intersections tool' and turned off walls - main layer only - I still see that triangular gap. Is it possible for you to post your file so I can see exactly how you did it. It's driving me mad!
