I cannot tilt a truss. Or can I?

What I might try is to draw an appropriately sized roof and ceiling below, generate the needed truss, and convert it to a symbol.  I can rotate the symbol.

 

So by normal do you mean the square side of the opening above the skylight ?  If so then yes I think that would be the best option.

Well done Gene. And yes, what you did is the only way to tilt a truss away from plumb.

I think I would have placed a beam at the ceiling level, and the trusses would then notch to sit on top of the beam. Don't forget to factor in hangers!
