I have the same problem, you can try MaxonForm or Archiforma....It's hard to get the desired result though. At least, I've been having troubles...
Easy to make a Slanted and curved surface on Archiforma with accuracy because you draw it on section and plan but I've been having problems to give it thickness.
On MaxonForm it is easy to make an object which you place as a wall on your plan,slanted and curved but it's harder to draw it accurately...
All this occures if the section of the curved wall is uneven.
If this is not the case just use the profiler..or profile manager

Good question: I've tried the most obvious methods, including 'magic-wanding' an arc, but with no success.

Can anyone please help?

Why not profile manager?

It doesn't seem to be possible to do this as a true curve - but a series of straight walls could be used if this is acceptable.

True, curve=many straight lines, the more you put, the more curvy it looks, but this is not the way it should be done in AC. What if someone needs do draw a building of more than 100 floors which has curved and slanted walls? (I do actually). It's a nightmare. I still don't know how to do it. I have done it in maxonform, but all I get ,is a huge object for my whole building. I'd love to draw it in AC not just as a 2d. I hope to see an option for curved & slanted in AC 11

You are absolutely right, it should be easier. I was merely offering a workaround.

It's not so long ago that we had slabs, walls and roofs with no curved edges. Then we could walk, now we can run, maybe tomorrow we will be able to fly.

At least the cut story feature can help with this scenario. Only one really tall segmented, slanted, "curved" wall....

Just a thought: Can Cigraph's ArchiWall 2 provide an answer? Create a slanted curved wall from an initial vertical curved wall, then delete the original....... or some similar technique?

A question for Fabrizio on the Cigraph website/forum perhaps......

Good luck!
