Is it possible to create an auxiliary view in revit? I need to create a model for my class which requires auxiliary views that would show the roof the true size. And if it is possible, how?

what do you mean by true size?. everything in Revit is true size. you can create any type view you want in Revit. if you want them all displayed at same time you will have to assemble them on a sheet. the drawing window in Revit does not tile as in Autocad. please clarify your question.

By true size i mean the exact surface area of the roof faces.

In order to make a model I need to be able to get a view perpendicular to the roof face (ie auxiliary view) which will show the exact surface area.  

I know in similar programs like Inventor the program will create the view for you and I was wondering if Revit could do something similar. This would save a lot of time to prevent exporting to AutoCad and creating it by hand.

You can create that by creating some ref. planes and give it Names, then in a 3D view go to Viewcube and choose the view "orient to a Plane".... loook the image attached...
