Im sure you guys have come across this question before but im a newbie and i cant seem to find something on here that fits. Im trying to put a frame around some artwork. The horizontal trim goes on with no problem because the profile of the trim is horizontal but when i want to do a vertical trim I only get this. Ive edited this profile by making it longer so it fits where I need it.. But that means i would have to make a new profile for every vertical peice that is a different length. I KNOW THERE HAS TO BE AN EASIER WAY! plus the vertical trims only schedule as 3"... even thought in my model they are 2' long. So basically i would like to take the profile used and rotate it about the 'Z' axis. I've read about people using wall sweeps and simple extrusion but i cant get it to work right... plus and it still does not schedule correctly.. im running out of time in this project.. please help a newbie out!! Hope someone can make sense of this rant!

We do our artwork as a face based, furniture family with Width Height that is parametric.  The trim automatically sets with the type based size that can be scheduled.

If you could help me and direct me to a tutorial that would allow me to place a parametric trim that can schedule. That would solve my issue.
