Wall reveals & sweeps

Is there a way to get wall reveals and sweeps to wrap into openings? (see

using Modify, highlight the sweep/reveal. Look at the Options Bar, and find
"Change Sweep Returns". Select this button, and then make sure the Options
Bar reads 90 degrees, then pick the end of the sweep (it will highlight).
This makes the sweep have a 90 degree bend, and adds anothe grip point.
Grap the grip at the end of the 90, and stretch it to the position you'd
like at the inside edge of the wall.

Cool, thanks. It works with sweeps, but not with reveals. Oh well, I guess I
can't have everything.

sure it will work on reveals. Its a little tricky, because you need to zoom
in tight, and actually pull the reveal *past* the opening just slightly,
then the Reveal Return will cut through the side of the wall at the opening.
