I'm sure that this questions may have been asked on the forums before, but I can't seem to find the answer at the moment, so I'll ask it again anyway.
Has anyone been able to get a window or even a generic wall hosted family to follow the slope of a vertically sloped wall?
I've created a little test project where I have a sloped mass and have created sloped walls using the Walls by Face command. I've tried to uncheck the Always Vertical parameter in the families of windows and simple generic wall hosted components to get them to slope with the wall rather than being vertical.
Revit help seems to indicate that this should work for walls: "You can create vertical or non-vertical families. This option pertains only to families hosted by walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, and site surfaces."
Has anyone been able to get this to work. This seems like exaclty what the Always Vertical parameter is for. I know that I've gotten this to work on roof hosted families.
Any help and suggestions would be much appreciated.
