So I realize that a sweep is not bidirectional and must start at the end of a path in order to run the entire path.

However, I want the sweep to only run part of the path, however solidworks automatically chooses to run in the wrong direction, is there any way to change the direction the sweep chooses to run?

I would split the path sketch where it intersects with the profile and make the side I don't want used a construction line, or remove it completely.
