Afternoon all

I am a noobie running Revit on my first live project. It is a small block of apartments with a curved standing seam roof. The end roofs are cut on the angle giving me a sloping fascia. Roof hosted sweep gutter seems to only work on horizontal planes, so whats the best way (or any way ) to do this. I have attached an extract of the model to hopefully show what i'm getting at.

Thanks and Happy Holidays

Not sure if this will work in your situation but I often use the Fascia sweep but with a gutter or ridge tile profile selected instead of a fascia, to sweep up the angles of roofs.

I've just tried it on a straight sloping roof edge and it works fine.

Duplicate the standard fascia, rename it and then select a suitable profile from the drop down list, or create a new one.

Maybe try an in-place family with a sweep of the gutter profile. Pick the edges of the roof for your path.
