Good morning, I'm having trouble getting this street gutter family to line up. I have corners that are not straight and I would like it to line up with them.

Here is the situation:

have you tried an Model In-Place (you can categorized it as a Plumbing Fixture) and use the Sweep tool? you can create a profile to load and use for the shape of the gutter.

Model in Place is done in the Project Model, it is not a RFA Family.

 

Architecture ribbon > Component > Model In Place.  you can use the sweep tool and use the Pick Line option and pick the arch to select your path.

I'll add an FYI...if your gutter is following a System Family Roof or Floor, the Roof Gutter and Floor Slab Edge will follow a curvature. You can extrude just about any profile you can sketch.  Create a Profile using the Profile Template and indicate the Profile Usage. Then load into your Project and assign the Profile Family it to a System Family TYPE, such as Gutter shown in screenshot.
