I'm not certain if it's a convention in the US but in UK/Ireland normally a slope arrow points up the slope and not down. This might be why Revit is doing the reverse of what you thought it would.
The Revit Kid.com! is run soley by me, Jeffrey Pinheiro, and I appreciate any amount of a donation to help towards monthly expenses such as ScreenCast.com in order for me to continue with tutorials and informaiton. Thanks!
The Revit Kid! hopes to be a major source of information for students using Autodesk Revit. Technology is advancing and the building/design field must keep up. Students of all levels will steer this advancement. I believe that it is a must for any student planning on entering a career in Architecture, Engineering, and even Construction Management to be comfortable with the world of BIM (Building Information Modeling). Ultimately, I plan for this blog to be a source of information for the student using Revit in the classroom at a design studio level. I would also like to open it up to the readers to ask me questions to further stimulate the information being produced.

Great tutorial,
BTW, for the slope of the slab if, you put a negative value it will slope the way you want it, so you don't have to rotate the slab
Check under Element Properties – Level of Tail – “Top of Slab” may have caused the error? I have not done this so . . .
I forgot to respond to Juans comment. I went back and tried his approach and it does work.
So use a negative slope if you run into the problem I did. I will look further into this to find out exactly why a negative slope is used.
Hey, cheers for the tutorial.

Thanks again for the great tutorials!
