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.

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.
