Revit Architecture 2008

 Hi. new to this, probably a common question.

I made a mass out of one extruded solid (base half semiellips, half semicircle) and then cut it diagonally (in section) using to voids set in two different workplanes before exiting the mass-tool. Geometry looks peach, but when i want to create walls out of the geometry, using wall by face, only the semielliptical part follows the geometry. The semicircle part do not recognize the slants in section, but appears as a simple half-cylinder (the base-shape).

What do I do wrong?

ok

I basically solved by not using a partial ellipse plus a semicircle as base-geometry for the extruded solid. I used two partial ellipses instead. One of the with the axis' as the semicircle.

weird problem, though, or is it a glitch in the software?
