Inclined or curved parapet on a oval path

Anonymous
Not applicable
Im trying to make a vertical curved or inclined parapet on an oval shaped roof. Im using archiforma 2.05 on archicad 9. The resulting archiforma object is offseted more than 40 feet from the edge of the roof.
This object cannot be scaled so its useless.
I also have profilers tools but I cant get it to work on curved paths.
Please help.

Djordje has a good point.
I had not thought of that possibility.
Are the roofs you are using as operators zero thickness ?
If so, as Djordje says they will not SEO as operators.
They must have some thickness.

The roofs and the profiled parapet have thickness. They just wont seo.
I could send any of you the file if you wish to have a look at it...
Meanwhile I simplified the parapet instead of an inclined wall (a profile)
I just made a regular wall (no profiled,- perpendicular to roof). I had a Deadline. Maybe later I will try again.
Im dissappointed at this limitation. Especially now that I bought these
add ons that supposedly overcame this modeling limitation.
But sincere thanks anyway

I would like to see the file.
Could you zip it and send it too me
via e-mail.
My e-mail address is in my signature.
I am on a mac so you will need to save the file
with "save in multiplatform format" enabled.
