Vertical Sweep Placement Problem

I am practicing with placing horizontal and vertical sweeps on walls in preparation of adding trim to the walls in a project. I was successful in placing Sweeps 1 & 2 on Wall 1 (highlighted in blue). Sweep 3 however will only allow it to be placed on the end of Wall 1. Is there a way to get Sweep 3 to the end of Wall 2 (highlighted in green)? My sweeps are a 1x6 hosted profile I created.

 

 I welcome advice if there is a better way to do this. There will be some cases where I can use sweeps intergral to the wall type, but in some cases not.

The sweep can't detect the side walls so you need to cheat a bit by creating a very thin wall (0'  0 1/32") to host that sweep

You could create it along the side wall and have the same elevation or make it shorter as shown below and then adjust the sweep elevation

Modify the wall join condition so that the butt is the other way or it's a miter.
