Hi all, 

Im trying to create some window mullions for a church in 2012 using a sweep, but for some reason the tight combination of curves keeps resulting in a 'cannot create sweep' error. any ideas on how i can fix this or otherwise get the result i'm looking for? I've attached an image of the path I'm trying to use.

If you are sweeping curves or angles, you should always try to have the path on the inside of the angle/curve.  Revit will not fold a sweep back on itself.

"Keep the path on the inside of the curve". Great Tip.
