I am using Revit Arch 2008. I need to create a unique sloped roof, and doing so in Revit would have been very difficult, so I found it easier to take my Revit model into sketchup, quickly create a few planar surfaces, and import those back into Revit with the intent of creating roofs/floors from them. However, I can't figure out how to do this now. Any ideas? I've attached an image that shows the building, with the sketchup import symol in the file as well (the beige-colored thing in the 3d view). I appreciate any ideas. Thanks!

Actually I may have found the answer in a previous thread...I've been using sketchup on and off, and I think that another user helped me with a similar issue in the past. Hold off on any detailed answers for now. I think I have it.

The trick is to create a mass family to hold the Sketchup geometry. This way you can use roof by face in Revit.
