I am trying to place a King Truss I downloaded from Revit City on a 10% angle and am having huge difficulties doing so.  I've tried creating a sloped reference plane and aligning the existing reference planes to angled planes but am unsuccessfully associating the two.  Please help.

Create new Generic Model family with the ref line controlled by an angle parameter. In the truss family, uncheck ‘always vertical’ and check ‘work plane based’. Load the truss into new family and place it on the ref line plane.
