One of the exterior tilt up 9 inches walls of an existing building that I am drawing has what appears a misplaced sweep at one location above the third floor. The side with the notch is on the exterior so I am trying to see how could I repair that. See Attached PDF with the wall and the area of the horizontal opening clouded in red.
The wall is near the same area where I added some copings on the top of the adjacent perpendicular wall, so I believe one of these sweeps erroneously went down and attached to that wall and caused the undesired opening.
I have tried to modify the wall, editing the profile, then deleting and creating a similar new wall, etc, but I get errors since it also appears that some of the other nearby elements are attached to it and the program ask me to delete these other things, that I do not want to do.
Question: What is this notch on the wall? How could I close and repair the generic wall without hurting the wall and its surroundings?
Thanks in advance.

Looks like a Reveal to me. Can you TAB-Select it?
You can ZIP and post the file if you want.
When I click it, I get the wall and using tab to see if I get something there I do not get anything, only the entire wall. I suspect the notch was caused when I was adding the copings' sweeps on the adjacent perpendicular wall, that is, maybe one of the copings jumped to that wall at that location. What do you think?
Is there a way to join that notch without having to delete and redraw the wall?
Is the Reveal built into the Wall Type? Check and see.
Can you just post the file. It would be so much faster and easier than guessing.
It was a 'hidden sweep" indeed. I brought the wall down (stretched it down) using a wall section, and in the process it directed me to a view that had the hidden sweep a little inside the building, and it was in a different color for easy viewing, and I was able to delete it right there (the dialog asked me to delete it to continue, so that is what I did...I think that is what I did then). Now the notch has disappeared completely.
Thanks for your feedback.
