Adaptive family placement with points from a curve

[adnandj]

Hi,

I am placing adaptive family on the points created from a curve.
“Party breaker” appears with defining the side point. Points are changing side of the curve I assume that is connected to the vector but I do not know how to solve it.

Any ideas how to put all the points on one side?

Best Regards,
Adnan

Drop here rvt file.

Hi,

There is some info on something similar here:

The orientation of the Adaptive

Ah, so the problem lies with the input curve geometry. All the other curves where the Adaptive component is created correctly are convex. The flipped components only occur at concave locations. The family looks to have been built as convex. [image] So when being created in a concave orientation the family reverses itself. [ezgif-2-a0d1713e9a] Might be easiest to add in a custom parameter to the family for handling concave situations (Additional Geometry or Visibility controls) .…

But it may be a completely different issue, depending on the number of control points in your family
Can’t check the rvt out until tmw though.

@adnandj @Ewan_Opie If the vector is negative you see this kind of behavior. Try this Adoptive_points_0.0.6(For Adnan).dyn (217.1 KB)

Hi Kulkul,

thank you!! But as always this is good but I have a problem appears when geometry is not ideal. I am sending you the Revit file…

Looks like you may want a 3rd point in your family so you can specify the vertical axis on placement.

I have already three points inside and the third point is creating couple of problems…
