Drawn cell outline bug

I notice that often when drawing an outline around a cell and using the placement ajustment to produce two joining cells, the outline tapers instead of forming a clean join.
This can be seen on my Home Page at http://www.hampsteadheath.net where the rolling image block top and bottom black outlines taper inwards at the point of conjunction.
Any solution?
Thanks,

Nigel,
Did you set the outer margin of the block where it should alaign with/against also to 0 ?
You need to set the line on the right of the block that is on the left side of your rolling image block, so the line on the right with outer margin to 0.
You need to do this also for the left line of the block on the right.
It's the outer margin of the other blocks (just the line that connects to the middle moving part) that prevent the block in the middle to reach it.
I think you already set the left and right site of the center block (the rolling image block the outer margins to zero.
Standard putting 2 blocks together gives a space between the blocks of 6 pixels. 3 form 1 block outer margin and 3 from the other one, anyway
hope I'm clear.... I think you will find it. if not let me know.

Hi Andre...
Yes.Just very fiddly. I took the line away from the bottom of the rolling images, added a top line to the two small ads and the "Hampstead Heath" and drew in the right and left sides and that cured it.
HOWEVER, I am still wondering why the ends of the lines are not "square" sometimes (¬),but have that slight inward slope/angle (when there is a gap between the end of the line and the ajacent cell.
Lol!
Thanks Andre
Nigel,
No idea why you have that, I use it a lot and it works good. But the trick is in the outer margin, these needs to be set to 0 for both block lines that you want to connect.
So you usally you need to change 1 line on both blocks. the other lines should stay the way they are. The option to have several outer margin, like 3,3,3,0 should be used.
Anyway, glad it's solved !
