Models lines in family wrong in project

I created a curtain-wall panel family (attached) with a tilt parameter. It works very nicely, except for the model lines on the glass showing the direction of opening. The lines ARE in the correct plane: same as the glass, but they are centered off to the side. Any ideas WHY this happened, and how to fix this?

Align and lock the tips of those lines to x, y RPs.

I'm still on Revit 2024, so I couldn't try your family (thanks though).

 

I used a Reference LINE in order to create the tilt plane. The window is centered to this RL. The ends of the line are locked to the RL's end-point. So there's really "no way" they could point elsewhere. Hmmm. In 3D view it is clear that they are on the proper plane.

 

Bottom line - I deleted the two lines and created them again (I'd tried that before posting). It works now. No idea what I did differently.

 

Thanks for your help.
