Using the new wall commands with curved walls doesn't work?

Why can you not use a profile wall, tilt wall, or double tilt wall for anything other than a straight wall. If you try and use the curved wall tool with any of these 3 options selected, you are unable to. Even with the magic wand tool, it just defaults it to a normal 90 deg. vertical wall.

Why have the options if you can not fully implement them.

on a side not, you can do so with the beam profiler, why not the wall profiler?

Kind of annoying, isn't it? I've complained about that for a while now.

it just seems logical to me. why handcuff the operation and allow it for only one type of wall? Cetainly we all have seen buildings with curved walls, including ones with tilts, or odd profiles.

Perhaps inlcude a warning as when using the barrel roof tool.......if it doesn't work, then let there be a warning, but at least let us try.

And what is the reasoning behind the beam tool doing it and not the wall tool?
