Curtain Error

I created a slanted curtain by -20°, I'm dragging its point to attach it to the wall. So that I have this error message. I also tried to move the wall to reach the curtain. I never could do it. I thought the problem because of the distance variation between the wall and the curtain from top to bottom since it's slanted. I aligned the wall to the curtain. I created the wall first then the curtain first, with and without mullions. I also tried to change the value in edit Angle. But, I always failed to solve it. Noting that the problem is only when the curtain wall is slanted.

I think it will be more simple for you if you'll use  a Mass and then Wall by Face +Curtain System

I thought you were using a Mass on this one @zs-17. If so, and you didn't delete the source Mass, you can modify your Mass and use Update to Face to correct the Wall.

No I'm not using Mass. I'm using curtain wall

It looks like I have this issue when creating the curtain with the Start-End-Radius Arc tool when it works with the Partial Ellipse tool no matter how I change its dimension length. I will let the experts decide if it's a valuable info.

Might be easier to draw the partial ellipse using a model line, and then place the wall on the model line using pick line method. 

 

...keep in mind the curtain wall's centerline justification.
