DETAIL WALL SWEEP not updating when changing wall orientation

When changing the wall's orientation or drawing a wall from top to bottom in floor plan, the detail component in the wall sweep does not update location. Any way to fix that?

  1. What kind of sweep?
    • built into wall structure?
    • a Family?
    • the OOTB Wall: Sweep tool?
  2. Changing a walls orientation top to bottom how? Changing the Base and Top constraint of a wall doesn't change its orientation. Top remains top and bottom remains bottom...you cannot drag the top grip ans slide it down

Adding screenshots showing what you have and what you are expecting would help in suggesting a straight forward solution or a workaround

When you nest the detail component to the Sweep Profile, you need to lock it to 2 Reference planes

(Place 2 Planes and dimension lock them) then align lock the detail component to them... This way when the face of the wall flips and subsequently the sweep,  the detail component will flip with them
