hi there, I have crearted an inclined wall using the masses. when ever i try to edit the walls to create the elevation i dont get the "edit profile" option, i only get the "remake" option.

PS: the mass is almost in the shape of a pyramid and the walls are created using "wall by face". It is a (Basic Wall: interior 4 7/8" partition)

Please if anyone knows how to fix this issue i would be very thankful

You cannot "edit profile" of a wall created "by face", if you want to change anything in that wall you need to change the "MASS", then "Update to Face", that's how it works.

You can insert "Windows and doors" in that wall but they are not being inclined, to do that, you have several ways, just cut a hole in that wall and then you can create an "In-place" family (window or door or a simple glass), or, you can create a "Generic model Face Based" family, you choose.
