I am attempting to create a wall that is curved in plan that also has an arched profile along the top edge in elevation. (I have been calling this a complex curved wall - curved in 3 dimensions). I have been able to Mass the envisioned shaped but when I : "Apply wall to face" the wall shows up curved only in plan w/out the top arched profile. I'm stumped!

do not do the wall by creating walls and then applying create wall.
go to modelling and then create and choose walls and create a wall from there.
it will work

I would do an inplace family as a sweep or extrusion that gets cut inside the family with a void extrusion. Attached is a quick example fo you to reverse engineer. Each wall is its own family with the cutting void. HTH

Hey Tom, tried to look at your example on how to do that void extrusion. I'm having trouble getting it on there which view did you use to create the void extrusion. Let me know thanks
