my questions is this:

how do you "cut" a wall sweep with a vertical reveal? i have an exterior wall that is a 6" wd std w/2"  of eifs on floors 2-4 and and a 4" eifs on the 1st floor. the vert reveal placed in the2nd-4th flr reads fine  because their is no no sweep- it is just cutting a wall noirmally .However the lower flr (with the extra 2" total of 4" -is a sweep with a slant cap watertable)cannot be penatrated with a reveal, tried changing the depth of the reveals cut, tried in place void sweeps, but keep getting the error-- circular chain of references)perhaps revit doesnt like the adjacent reveals or sweeps? who knows ---omg -help please someone i am wasting company time here!!!??? thought about putting mutliple identical sweeps in the wall style over each other which i know revit doesnt like but at least this way i could grab sweep ends and pull them apart to physically create the reveal, but then if the ext wall needs to move the sweeps wont behave correctly and everything will have to be re-adjusted - which we all know in arch EVERTHYNING ALWAYS CHANGES REPEATLEY. I have racked my brain to try and figure out this one...
