A Twisted section

Can anyone tell me if/how this is possible -
I'm trying to create a long recangular section (thats going to be a roof louvre) that twists from one end to the other, i.e at one end its section would be a rectangle and at the other end its section would be that same rectangle but rotated a few degrees.

I tried using profiler to model it but dont know how to twist the section or if its possible.
Any ideas would be gratefully received?

You could use GDL and the SWEEP command which is explained in the Help Menu (Help/ArchiCAD Help); see picture attached. It's a pretty simple script. If you want to lay it over just type in roty 90 before everything else.
