Adjust Elevation CropBox by Z Value

[Dynamo_Ann]

Hello,

I’ve tried various methods to set a crop box by curves/bounding box (see link below). What am I doing wrong? Curves are continuous. Bounding box min/max - shows correctly.

I’m stumped.
No clear solutions when searching.

Elevation View Crop Region - Adjust Z values

I’m trying to set the Z values for my interior elevations and can’t quite figure out how to set them. I’ve pulled the elevations, can get the crop box curves, but I’m struggling to set the values. I would really like to hit only the Z values, setting them to 0 (finish floor) and 12 (ceiling) but I can probably deal with X & Y if needed. Is it possible to set just the Z values in a view? If not, how can I harvest the X & Y values of the box without manually inputting them every time into the …

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Dynamo_Ann ,

Could you perhaps share this script together with a sample Revit file?
I am not too sure why the 2nd node/approach does not work for you.

Also FYI: using the BoundingBox.ToCuboid node you can view the BoundingBox as Solid in Dynamo.

Hello @Daan

Thank you.

The cuboid helped me fix something else in the script (used Geometry.Translate at y instead of z) which meant the bounding box solid was 50 thick instead of 0, this meant that nothing was on the same plane. Have got the node in #3 working.

Thanks,
Ann
