Creating irrgular column shape family

I have a telephone shape Column

I'm trying to create a family on Revit, but I can't find a way to adjust the diagonal width.
Screenshot 2023-12-27 092415.png

I draw a reference line at end of C dimension as I want it to move when I change C value which can't be done with reference plan as I tried a lot. but when I created I a second reference line and associate the distance between the two reference lines to bwall, when I change the value of bwall the the shape width scaled but not to the desired value.

Is there any way to create this shape.
thanks for your help
