so the question is pretty straight forward. currently, i can only manage to create perfect hyperbolic paraboloid

edges without the surface. whenever i select the four parabolic edges (making a 3d closed loop) and then click the

"create form" command, revit gives an error that it cannot make the surface. what have i been doing wrong i can't

seem to understand. i'm at my wit's end.
