To create a slope for an odd shaped roof like the one below use slope arrow.
Revit roof slope arrow annotation.
Also for the life of me i can t figure out how to nest a simple arrow annotation that i wan t to use to indicate the slope.
Enter a value for offset from reference.
The tail of the slope arrow must be on one of the sketched lines that defines the boundary.
Revit snaps to the cornerpitch of the roof.
The tail is the low point and the head is the high point.
Optional change the following on the options bar.
I have created a roof cricket family and am finding discrepancies with revit s spot slope tool when the crickets are placed on a sloped roof host.
For slope representation enabled in an elevation or section view select arrow or triangle.
I think this may be how revit is calculating the slope with respect the host surface but i can t wrap my brain around it.
Draw the arrow then click it and change the properties to select the right levels and offsets.
When you draw a slope arrow you can enter property values to specify the height at its head and tail or a slope value.
Ceilings for example to create a flat sloping roof draw a slope arrow from the lower edge to the upper edge of the roof boundary.
In the type selector select the type of spot slope to place.
Click annotate tab dimension panel spot slope.
