I am endeavoring to create a roof in REVIT 2017. It must be ONE slope but with multiple edges. For example in PLAN this roof would have a varying ZIG ZAG edge all around , for all practical purposes a rectangular roof with a varying saw tooth edge. I have tried the massing and can get an extruded roof with the saw tooth edge BUT I cannot get to the slope I need. Moreover when using the Roof by footprint and draw in the edges and assigning the slope I need on the edges at the TOP and BOTTOM of the "LONG" sides of the shed roof it comes out with multiple ridges and hips, NOT what I want. I want ONE SLOPE.

Anyone out there can shed ( no pun intended) some light and insight into this architectural problem in REVIT?

Thanks in Advance!

Without a picture of what you need, it is just a guess.
You can use roof by footprint with slope applied to one edge only (pic1),
or slope arrow (pic 2),
or vertical opening tool with the shape of your choice (pic3).
