Hi again :-)

Just wondered if anybody knew of a way to stop Revit cutting sections through angled beams so literally (see attachment)?

You would never draw like that in CAD, instead you would tend to draw a cut through the beam to illustrate that it is there, however allow the plans do that talk with regards to it been angled.

If there any way to make Revit do this?

Thank you for any help as always!

If it's a 3D element and a section cut passes through it, revit will show a section cut. I suggest, you modify the section cut on plan to show staggered section line (use split segment at the option bar). See image. It might help.
