    Not possible For complex angled workplanes, it might be easier to create a shape-edited roof and pick the face as your workplane. Then you could possibly manage to sketch in a ref. plane if you want to keep it for future use. Otherwise create your geometry on that workplane and then delete the roof.

    Could you post a screenshot of what you're trying to do? It could be as simple as going to an elevation view and sketching a sloped ref. plane. From your post, I thought maybe you had some arbitraty sloped plane of some sort and that's why you want to pick the 3 points.
