    Post Return Air Diffuser?

    I'm new to Revit MEP, and I've only been using it about a week so far. Thanks for the help in advance.

    I am wondering how I can get a return air diffuser in a sloped ceiling?

    Default Re: Return Air Diffuser?

    The Aligned command worked, however, the arrows in the air diffuser that are drawn with symbolic lines disappear as soon as the align command is done.

    The solution at the moment was to switch the symbolic lines to model lines with their own category which is a subcategory of the air terminals category. This being so the lines can be turned off when needed.

    Still looking for other solutions if possible. Please.

    Thanks for the help!

    Have you tried making an annotation system to nest in your family? Symbolic lines are only visible in planes parallel to them, however a symbol family might give you better results.
