Hi all,
I'm trying to curve soffit, in elevation, to match an exterior facade arch. I've been looking at a few ways to go about this but haven't been able to figure it out yet. Void extrusion and sweeps were of the options but was unable to get the results.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you

I don't think you mean soffit.   Do you want a brick soldier course over the arch similar to the flat soldier w/ keystone you have on the other opening?  If so then check outh this thread and sub threads.

I'll attach another picture to better explain the situation. There is a gap between the facade and the window. I want soffit to extend from the exterior facade to the interior area acting as a bulkhead. I've been doing this fine until I was trying to make an arch out of it. I tried making the wall thicker, but it impacted my drawing overlapping walls, deleting intances and unjoining objects that I wanted joined. Attached is a picture of what is happening and I want the soffit or maybe another material to curve along with the exterior facade if at all possible.

Thanks,

Dylan

Do you have two walls here, one in front of the other?  I ask this because the arch top of the curtain wall does not seem to cut the inner wall.  

 

You do understand that you can paint a brick material on the underside of the arch?

I have one wall in front of the curtain wall and the portion blocking the window arch is soffit. I want to curve the soffit so it matches the exterior facade and the window arch. I will attach pictures of the plan and section view. Highlighted portion is the exterior wall. Left side no soffit, right side soffit on the 3d picture.

The soffit could be a simple in-place extrusion sketched from the elevation view and set in the correct category.  

 

Why isn't there an interior wall above the curtain wall?  A plan view would help us understand what you have here.
