Curtain Wall to sloped Curtain Wall

Here I go again. I am pretty sure that this doesn't work unless someone give me a reason to believe it.

 

I have a Curtain Wall that have louvered panel. The boss insist that the wall to be slope to align with the slope of the roof. I tried and tried to get it to work but the panel keep going back to flat system panel or glazed.

 

I need a suggestion or solution to an awkward problem.

Thank you in advance

Looks like Attach Top/Base will get you there. No? What about Edit Profile?  

 

...or, do you mean that you have louvered CW panels and Revit keeps rejecting them and replacing with a default panels?  If so, let's see the file and/or the CW Panel family.  Post it.

Only system panels can work in non rectangular conditions. If you want a non rectangular louver, change the panel to empty and place a separate louver family in the space.

Another way is simply create the louver panel as a system panel with a louver material (a horizontal surface pattern and a cut-out rendering appearance). It may be enough for elevations and 3d, for detail section you can use a detail component if required.

Another another way is create a curtain wall type with only horizontal mullions (louver blades) and use it for the curtain panel where the louver is.

You can only have system panel for non-rectangular shape panel. 

 

Your options will be:

1. Model in place.

2. Adaptive
