Wall sweep passed opening

[Chris DiSunno]

This may be a problem with the new version, cause it never happened before, or I may just be doing it wrong.

I have a soffit (wall sweep) wrapping the corner of a gable end and mitered back to the wall (see attached top wall sweep). There are windows on that gable. When the window is at the height of the sweep it looses the modified length and miter (copy a window up to see what I mean). O.K. that's fine... drag the grip back and re-miter it. NOW copy the second window up. In the old versions if you dragged a grip back on top of a previous grip they "merged". I cant get this to work. I started with the bottom condition and dragged each grip over and over and can't get rid of them. I tried aligning in elevation.

Please help.

The new 8.0 wall sweep parameter "Cut By Inserts" had a pleasant side effect that lets you do just what you need here.

So set that param on the upper sweep and now you will only get one segment for the whole wall regardless of the number of windows. You may pull it to the proper place and add the return.
