Hello everyone,
I need to model conduits along lines or polylines, but the Conduit.ByLine node is not working for me.
If I attach all the nodes, the file freezes with no result.
I see that there is a problem in the Conduit Type input, but I don’t know what to change exactly.
Do you have an idea how to solve this problem?
Hi @Asma_LA,
ConduitType seems to be a reserved keyword. Update the MepOver package if you don’t have the latest version.
You can replace ConduitType by conduitType and save the custom node to obtain again the input.
thank you for your replay,
I modified, the node was corrected. I have the latest version of the package.
But it doesn’t always work !
You can copy paste the Python script of the custom node in the canva.
Link the required inputs (line, level, diameter…) to the IN[0], IN[1] inputs.
Read the error above the Python script and show the error content in a new reply.
Here’s what it looks like
You missed the input conduit type.
when I attach it, my model pinwheels for infinity !
I tried several times but the same problem.
I have also Revit 2022.1
What is your curve input ? A line ?
Yes, they are splines, but I tried with a straight line, and I have the same problem, and the model pinwheels for infinity.
Is your graph set to run ‘automatic’? If so: set it to ‘manual’ instead.
T_Pover Thank you very much for your help,
I have just tried it and it works, but the duct does not follow the spline, it was created in line.
But at least I get rid of the pinwheels problem.
T_Pover I opted for this solution, drawing the lines one attached to the other and finally I attach the “Conduit.ByLine” node to the “Elbow.ByMEPCurves” node and it works well.
But as I have to import my splines from another software, it will take me more time to redraw them.
Hello @Asma_LA …think conduit can only be straight, but you could try remake the spline approximately…
sovitek Thank you for your solution, it looks like mine that I am creating.
In fact, I opted for a script to divide my curve into points, and then generate a polycurve. And then by selecting the polycurve it works very well.
I’ll test yours to choose the best one.
