Curtain Wall Window with sloped top

For a project, I want to use a Curtain Wall to create a window with tessellation. The top of the Window is sloped. This does not work for me in Revit the way I want it to. I adjust the profile by twisting the top pink line to 45 degrees, but then when I approve this the mullions don't align properly. Does anyone know how I can fix this, or does anyone know another way to get this right?
Thanks in advance!

@RC_RVT This is a screenshot from my work.

The steps I went through are as follows. I chose to edit the profile. At the top horizontal pink line, I clicked open the lock and twisted it by 45 degrees. Then I knotted the vertical line and horizontal line using trim. But then the mullions don't line up neatly.

what size are your mullions? I can try it with that size mullion to see if it makes a difference.

It worked fine for me with the join. I've attached my Revit file. I'm working on Revit 2024, so not sure if you'll be able to use this? If you can, then just copy my curtain wall from this project, and paste it into your own project and see if this works.
