Happy new year all, could someone advise me the best way to get fascia corners to look right. I set the offset of the fascia to -50mm but when i come to the corner i have to manually adjust it to get it to look right. But it still doesn't look right because of the corner detail is there a way to get the gable fascia to trim to meet the other fascia?

When you create the fascia you need to select both the gable end edge and the sloping edge (actually you can select all the edges of the roof to make one "fascia"). When you do that the geometry to the gable end fascia board will be altered, and cut horizontal so it will be the same size as the sloped edge fascia as it turns the corner.
Hello thanks for this, yeah i think its a slight issue for Revit, the tile/slate roof construction should over sail the fascia by about 2"/50mm on the non gable end to allow the roof to flow into the guttering. To show this, i offset the fascia by -50mm ( see below) but when you do this it doesn't connect the fascias properly ( hence my previous post) and i am back to creating them singularly..any ideas?
If the automatic fascia tool is not creating the detail as you need it, you will need to create an in-place model for the condition. There is not enough control over the "automatic" geometry to get what you need.
Personally I would probably just get it "close" in the 3d model and then create a 2d detail of the exact condition for construction purposes.
If it is important to have it exact in a 3d view, then I think in-place modeling the condition is the only way to do it.

Draw two roofs and place the fascia to the lower one. Make the top one 2" overlap.
I thought of this option as well but was not totally sure if it would solve all of the geometric issues. I guess one can try it to see. Good suggestion.
Thanks i have thought of a couple of other work around's, what are your thoughts on these?
* Make a different size depth fascia on gable side so they meet at the point (wont look right in renders)
* Use the fill tool to cover up the over hang/hide fascia on relevant elevation (again wont look right in renders, could photoshop)
* Don't use -50mm offset and just draw in an extra section of roof over hanging (again wont look right in renders)
Can you share your file with us? This will help us investigate the workarounds you've mentioned.
