I am trying to figure out how I can and slope points to a slab that has a curve. It works fine when its a simple shape but once I introduce a curve then I no longer have the option to set points. Any suggestions?

I ran into the same thing on a recent project. You need to make a segmented line to represent the curve. I placed the segmented line inside the wall and joined geometry. It’s not perfect but it works.

I'm guessing that you are trying to modify sub elements on a curved slab to set elevation points. As you found it doesn't work. You can't use the sub elements option on a curved slab. What I do is the slab so it has no curves, angles don't matter, just no curves. Then I modify the points I need and create a GENERIC MODEL > VOID to cut out the geometry that needs to be curved. HTH p.s. you have to use a generic model as you can't have a void mass. -Brett

You dont need to create a void family to reprofile your slab. Use Model>Opening>Opening by Face. This works for roofs and area drains as well.

This works fine uless the roof has multiple faces. I really don't want to manage multiple openings if I don't have to.

Previously this modifier couldn't be applied to any floor or roof that has a nonstraight segment. But in the new version of revit "Revit 2009" you can apply the modifier to curved floor/roof.However, you can work around that (If you r using Revit 2008 or older version) by using a vertical opening (Like the Figure provided). You need to start with a simplified straight segment floor/roof shape that contains no arcs. You add the arc as a subtraction in the form of an opening. By using the Opening tool in the Modeling tab and choosing the Vertical option, you can then sketch the arcs you need.
