Revit seems to have difficulty aplying a model surface pattern to a conical roof shape. Revit twists the 90 degree paralell line pattern counter-clockwise. I have tried to dupliicate and rotate to counter-act this effect without success. Before I give up and remove the surface pattern and apply model lines to acheive the effect, I wanted to check here to see if anyone has found a solution to my problem.
I appreciate your help.

Model lines are what I typically do with instances like this. Anyone else have a workaround?

I use either,
1. arrayed model lines, or
2. a line segmentation option (to remove fascia segmentation, I use curved model line and apply fascia to it (pic 1), or
3. slope glazing with empty panel applied on top of conical roof (pic 2).

Thanks burtont & pijpiwo!
I could not use model lines because I could not set a work plane host on a curved surface. I ended up segmenting the curve so hips at base were same as standing seam offset (1'-2"). The result created hips which are represented by lines which can be edited to appear like the surface pattern of standing seam roof elsewhere on elevations and 3d views. However, I could not use a curved model line to host a curved fascia because of aforementioned work plane host issue. So I modeled a temporary 3/4" trim host which I later hid in relavent view. See image.
Now if I can find a way to get model surface pattern for shakes to remain vertical on curved wall sweeps!
Thanks Agian burtont & pijpiwo!
