Roof Tile Hip / Ridge / Rake Adaptive Family

I downloaded a tile family used for hips ridges and rakes from a tile MFG.  Unfortunately, there is no way to properly rotate the family into the correct position. 

 

I have been trying to recreate this using an adaptive family.  Long story short, I simply don't understand how to use a combination of a point and adaptive point to get the rotation angle to control the tile family.  

 

I've uploaded the original families to show the intent and I'm looking for some advice on how to properly create this in the adaptive component family.

 

Thanks,

Josh

Why do you need to recreate it?

It doesn't work. You can only place on face or work plane, so for instance if you were to place it on the rake edge of a gable roof, the tile would need to be rotated 45deg to cover the barge and roof. If you used it on the ridge, it would be tilted to one plane of the roof or the other. It has to be rotated.

This?

It's a Face-Based Family. Easiest way to do that, would be to create a 3D Beam (W Shape is good) along the hip and then place the Tile Family on the Beam's surface (Face). TIP: Make sure the Placement Plane for the Beam is set to Level when you place it.

Tiles placed on the 45-degree face of a rotated W-Shape Beam:

Edit the Line Based family you have >> Edit the single tile and host the Swept Blend on a Ref. LINE hosted on the Front/Back Plane. Then give that an angle >> Load into the Line Based, overwrite and associate...Outcome is as below GIFs

 

Edited Family also attached - version R2022.

Thank you!  I had tried this at first but did not think to host the tile to a perpendicular ref line.  Thank you for the help!
