How to make a wall footing's profile? Not only like the default profile (box). Please look at my capture. I create it with massing - blend. If we can make footing's profile it would be very helpfull, without creating it one by one with massing.

you can make a profile for that shape easily so it will handle most of your conditions, except for the ends those will have to modeled separately(family) then joined. If this is all for standalone walls I would just create a struct. family thats top ref. plane is the lower level of the wall, then make its length parameter an instance parameter, then just insert and stretch.

Again, except for the ends those will have to modeled separately then joined, as previously mentioned, a sweep will handle this most effectively.
