Curved Duct

I am working on an auditorium that has a curved back wall. We would like to place the duct against the wall. I haven't quite found a way to draw that in revit.

You can approximate this with a in-place duct fitting (re attached .jpg). Unfortunately, you can't tap off of a duct fitting, but if you get the ducts close to it, it may be 'good enough'. I've seen customers take similar approaches due to this limitation. Of course, you lose the 'flow' information through the duct... but at least you can approximate the physical model.

Thanks for the reply. The in-place duct fitting worked out pretty well. It looks a lot better than my original duct created by approximating the curve using straight segments
