Wall Sweeps , Parapets and how to tag them.

[drafterjohn]

hi, I'm frustrated with Wall sweeps. They look pretty, you can add a keynote to them, but you can't tag them.

is there a way to make a nice parapet cap that can be tagged and keynoted ?

The reason I'm being so picky is kindof complicated. Said sweeps are in a model, that is being linked into another model, where I have been requested to keynote the Demo items ( here's my other thread --->Keynoting-Linked-File-Work-arounds........)

I was thinking of making a parapet cap family .

How have other people handled this ?

As you have noted, you cannot tag wall sweeps. I do not think that Juan's way of doing it will work, though I could be wrong. I would use an in-place family. Using a sweep with your custom profile (either drawn in-place or a loaded one.)

Hope that helps, Joe

You are right Joeyd, Wall sweeps cannot be tagged, My mind is not where it should be today... Loong Day Sorry about that. I will edit my previous post

I wouldn't worry about it. I thought your reply may have been beneficial in other instances, just not the wall sweep.
