I'm trying to model the door track for an overhead door and want to be able to modify the angle of the sloping track but still keep the radius bend tangential. Basically, I've no idea how to even approach this and my clueless attempts haven't come close to getting the result I need. It's a bit difficult to explain but the attached screenshot should make it clear.

I've assumed that I should model this using a sweep in a generic model family for nesting into a door family so that's how I've tried it so far. I've no problem modelling it as a static object but the minute I try and flex the path by altering the angle of the upper sloping track the path gets screwed up. Help!

nevermind, I've sorted it. Looking at the balustrade template gave me enough clues to work it out.
