Parapet copings with different profiles

[ToanDN]

How do I miter two parapet copings constructed from wall sweeps with different profiles?  Their high points and low points are coplane respectively so they should be able to miter correctly.

Thanks.

If the profiles are different, then they won't miter.  You could try manually joining them, but that would likely only work if they are modeled separately from the walls (as opposed to being a hosted sweep), and you'd probably still be left with a little extra piece where the slopes don't quite match up.

An alternative might be to stop the two sweeps short of the corner, and then use either an in-place or loadable family to create the corner condition, since that's how it will be fabricated in reality.  See here:  http://digitalmediaplan.co.uk/sotech/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/clip002.gif
