Hi I am trying to design a roof and am getting the error message: Inner loops of a footprint sketch may not have slope-defining lines. The building is just a simple rectangle shape with an inner courtyard. Revit will not let me define the slope of the roof in the courtyard. Any help appreciated

I had a roof with a courtyard once and kept getting that error. What I ended up doing was splitting it into two roofs and joining them so you didn't see the separation between them. Kind of a pain, but it got the job done. (Then after all that the roof changed anyway! Darn clients!) Vanessa

Do the roof in two halves and join should work.

hi all from not so sunny brisbane a trick we learnt from reading mr spot's many posts - try cutting holes in rooves to get your final shapes. may not suit your courtyard need, but we find the 'opening' modeling command very useful, along with simply creating voids in the footprint sketch. love the comment about clients - will they ever stop changing things?
