Swept Blend with non square profile
Thanks for the reply.
I may have explained it very poorly.
My issue is I want to stay away from an adaptive family because I want to nest this with other Generic model families. I was wondering if its possible to do a swept blend similar to the attached screenshot below.
BLUE being the profile (a basic square) and RED being the path of the sweep. As seen below, I need to keep the profile vertical however I want to create a parameter to adjust the "SKEW" angle.
Why are you in an Adaptive Template then? Anyhow, you can create that Sweep Blend by pathing along a Ref. Line in a regular Template.
...wait a minute. I misread you screenshot. You'll need to cut your form with a Void Extrusion at both ends.
....is this what you are after?
haha the geometry has been doing my head in for a while.
What you have there is what I come up with as well. But its not what i need.
This is the best way i can explain it:
(Thats also the reason I attached that adaptive family. To explain the geometry and work out if I could do that as a generic model)
Above.... a-a is the same level and b-b is the same level (constant)
Accepted solution

That is just a basic swept blend.

Okay then -- so we're back to what I showed you in Message #4.

YES! That’s it!
So the path is not straight and the profiles are offset?
Would it be possible for you to create that in revit 2021 and send over the file so I can investigate? I can do 2022 if you wish but would just have to download it from my suite.
thanks so much. Keen to see how it flexes
Here is a 2019 family.
