I can't find my wall sweep profile in my project browser under "profiles"

Hello,

 

I am not able to locate my wall sweep profile in my project browser. I have looked under "profiles" within "families", but the existing wall sweep profile is not there.  I did a project browser search and no wall sweeps came up. I would like to locate my existing wall sweep profile, so that I can modify it for my current project. Would wall sweep profiles be located under a different family besides profiles? Please see the attached screenshots.

 

Thanks,

Megan

What profile does your wall sweep use? Check the Wall Sweep's Type Properties. The Profile name is shown there.

Profiles are in drop down list in Sweep Properties.

...then that's what you search for: "cornice"; not "wall sweep".   Smiley Wink

Just create a new profile family and load it in your project.

Thank you, but I already tried searching "cornice" and no matches were found.

I suspect then, that the Profile being used for the existing wall sweep is set to "Default". If you modify that one, I bet your wall sweep with change.
