Creating non rectangular walls

I need to do a trapezoidal shaped wall?

Can we do this by editing the wall profile in a view like in Revit or is there another way to do this?

Thanks a lot

Or, if you want the vertical section profile of the Wall to be Trapezoid, then define the Profile in the Profile Manager Dialog and use the "Complex Profile" Structure of the Wall.

Thanks

I’m actually using the morph tool to do it. Is it the simplest way?

Nope. Morph tool is more for exceptions. Always try to use a specific tool if possible. It will be easier later.
