BUG? Can't change curved wall Ref-Line Direction!

Anonymous

Hi'
The title is self explanatory,
In AC15, a curved wall's Reference Line direction
cannot be flipped!
Why is this important?
Well, for "shelling" two collections of "Space Traced"
curved walls!

Here we have two "Zero" Walls,
each on a separate story, and each,
unfortunately, going in a different direction...

As "Zero Walls" (0 Hight, 0 Thickness),
these two show up in 3D and can be useful
for ruled shelling

However,
because each is going in a different direction,
and this CAN"T be fixed, the result is erroneous!

I was going to suggest you manually mirror the wall but that does not make any difference to the wall direction.
Even re-drawing the curve in the opposite direction doesn't work.
It seems curved walls always go clockwise.

The only way I can see to do this is to manually choose the points for the second profile rather than using the magic wand.
