Is something like this what you are trying to achive? (see attached JPG)
The way to do it is place a wall in a view with the curve in plan. Switch to an elevation, draw a reference plane at the angle you want, name the reference plane, attach the top of the wall to the reference plane. Then for the sweep, set your "work plane" to be the reference plane you created earlier. Sketch the 2D sweep path and apply the profile you want to it.
Hope this helps.
Tom

I'll answer when I can. Sometimes the workload does not allow the time needed to respond. It is fun to realize that the Revit community is worldwide and that stuff I write in my bedroom at night is getting out to the world. Just glad to help out when I can.
