I have tried applying a cast stone window sill with a sloping profile as a sweep to a brick veneer wall.  The sweep shows up fine when I look at it in section view - the brick is part of the wall structure and still extends to the window frame.  In other words there is a portion of wall still seen at the sloping portion of the sill.  What is the best procedure to remedy this? Thanks for any help.

Create a "Void" in a In-place Family in the category "Walls" to cut that portion of wall...

Replace the wall opening cut with a void extrusion on the window family. Revit won't allow you to have opening cut and void extrusion in the same family. Thus your wall cuts need to be based on void extrusion. I hope this helps.

Alternatively create a hosted wall family for the cill that has a void in it. This would also allow you to schedule the item easily.

I hate wall sweeps.
