When you first select Revit help menu, there is an image shown (see attached). This image shows a picture of a non-vertical curtain wall on the far right that is joined to two other vertical curtain walls at each end. Can anyone provide me with a tip as to how to re-create the curtain wall shown in this image? I have tried using wall by mass face, rotating the work plane and all my efforts have been unsuccessful. It would appear given this image that it is possible, I just need to figure out how.

create the mass
then go to the "Massing" tools in the left toolbar
select "curtain system by face"
that will allow you to put a curtain wall by face like in the image.

as always, another example of how nice it would be to be able to pick a wall and just set a cantilever angle to it without having to create masses... hehe *keeps dreaming for that day*
