Hi, i need some help. I’m wondering if it’s possible to generate a solid model from elements (either by selections or by layer) ,with specified height, in the model space? [image] Image on top is a series of lines and the second one is a polyline. Thanks ahead. Regards, joel

Hi Joel, You are missing the AutoCAD geometry (lines) to Dynamo (curves) conversion step. [image] Daan: You’ll have to start by importing your AutoCAD lines into Dynamo. I highly recommend using the Civil3DToolkit Package node PolyLineExtensions.GetGeometry for this. [image]

hi Daan & mzjensen, First of all, many thanks for the quick reply. Really appreciate it. Can you further help me what’s wrong with what i did below. [image] Thanks ahead. Regards, joel

Yehey! This works! I’m just wondering if my selection are lines instead of polylines. I don’t want to pedit especially if there are many like walls on the building for example. thanks ahead. REgards, Joel

Hi @Joel_Buenafe , The script works for both :slight_smile:

Hi Daan, Sorry i fell asleep last night. All polylines/circles are generated while line elements are not. Can you further help me on this please? [image] Very much appreciated. Many thanks. Regards, Joel

Hi @Joel_Buenafe , Your Surface.ByPatch node is erroring since you have an input like this: (The different colors here correspond to your Lines, and a PolyLine.) [image] Since your lines aren’t closed curves the Surface.ByPatch node errors since it doesn’t know what to do. To circumvent this is…

Hi Daan, I was about to download when i noticed that this is for Revit? Will this work on Civil 3D as well? [image] Thank you. Regards, Joel

The blue text gives you the dependencies of the package, which in this case are Revit and IronPython2. So the answer is no, archi-lab will not work in Dynamo for Civil 3D.
