Flat Roof Parapets are a PITA! Can't get intersecting walls to look right

I've read up on a lot of the articles and help for parapet walls on a flat roof. I generally have it working alright, albeit what a slow and PITA approach! I guess not too many people using home designer do this, otherwise they would develop some better functionality! Rant over....

 

So specifically, I have different roof elevation heights and intersecting walls that the corners and wall caps I just can't get them to render correctly. There's variations all over this roof that I believe many places it's combining the walls even though they are different heights. I've added breaks on many of these walls, but they eventually just combine together again. For the parapets I defined a wall type that has a stucco interior, I suspect it's not handling in some cases the interior/exterior wall positions are different because the way these elevations come together. I'm not sure how to rectify this or describe it, so I'll post a bunch of pictures.
