Hi all,

I am trying to make a wall from the Terreal Zephir Evolution facade, I was able to get the wall file and copied it into my project. However when I go to build that wall the vertical indent does not appear only the horizontal one. It gives me a warning that it was unable to creat the reveal because the sweep instance is outside of its wall but it is not, and I do not know where the sweep parameters are... At this point I really would appreciate help, I am so close.

Attached is images of my problem:

The first image is of the copied wall with the second wall being the wall I drew and as you can see there is no vertical lines to indicate the breaks.

Vertical reveals are not part of a wall definition.  They have to be added afterwards.

A material will give you that effect and no need for any sweeps.

Better yet - go to their site and get the Revit files:  (Did you think of looking there?)
