I'm trying to create a horizontally curved wall with a vertically curved top profile that will host a sheet metal coping.  Trying to use the swept blend with the spline option as the 2D path and it will only work with a simple spline of three nodes or less.  It seems there a limit to the amount of nodes for the path. 

Once I get the wall, which I can't, will it host a sloped coping?  Or is there a better way to do this?  Thanks.

Hi, you don't tell what version of Revit you use but see this: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RV9TKBD0

That was great.  Thanks for the video.  However, I would like the 2D path to be more complex.  Sort of like an 'S'.  And the top of the wall has to have a vertical bump.  Sort of like a bell curve.  Should that be several blends instead on one joined together?

Thats EXACTLY what I was trying to do.  How did you do that?  Were you able to create the 2d path with more than one segment?  I tried the spline feature and i could not use more than 2 nodes.

NO, because the "curved shaped" in elevation.... only allow straight segments and it's not in Solid Swept blend but Solid Sweep....

Still having trouble with the sweep at the top of the curved wall.  How do you get a complex curve in the vertical direction?
