I am trying to create a sidewalk on my site... and I used the subregion tool and I had drawn straight lines, but when I finished the lines were no longer straight and it had followed the contours... I know it is supposed to do this, but why do my boundry lines of the subregion not stay straight? Anyone...!?!?!?

I am having the same problem. I am drawing my subregion lines smooth and after I clikk Finish Sketch and look at the 3-d view all of the boundries are really jagged. Please Help.

There are some known issues with site tools. Normally it is the opposite of what you are seeing in that lines off axis are automatically "fixed" so that a 90.1* line is shifted to 90*. Basically it comes down to Revits preference to minimize calculations and the number of significatnt digits. Why it would do the opposite though I dont know....  Nick

I used an imported DWG to create the topo. I am going to see if i can get a points file to try and build it that way. Thanks for the help.
