Can someone tell me why this is dimensioning incorrectly? The roof properties show the roof slope is 6" in 12". Why does one elevation say the slope is 6" in 12" but the other one shows it as 4 1/2" in 12"? Help needed urgently!!

Looks like one is a tag and the other is drafted. I don't believe the 4 1/4 because it sure looks like 6

They are both slope arrows, I put them both on. Why I'm particularly puzzled is that it is the same roof being dimensioned. In one elevation it shows as 6 in 12, the other it shows as 4 1/2 in 12. Also attached is the section, where the top of the roof shows a different dimension to the bottom, even though they are both the same slope. Any other ideas?

So .... at least one side is 6/12... did you check them all? I believe the 6/12 - I don't believe the 4 1/4 - 12 which you keep writing 4-1/2 - 12 but clearly says 4 1/4. BTW - is this all the same roof slope tag? No unit problems in the tag is there?

Sometimes Revit finds the hip. Tab through and make sure you have the "rafter".

Yes that seems to be it, thank you jarosa, if I hit tab it will switch between the 4 1/4 and 6. I couldn't figure out what would be 4 1/4, bt that makes sense,the hip. Thanks for your help too WWWHub!

Don't know why but it is right there, it is reading the default thickness of the structure of 4 1/2
