I have been playing around with getting solid geometry from revit elements, retrieving and converting them to designscript objects and I have a couple of questions for better understanding.
-
After experimenting throughout many hours of the day I would like to create a list of revit planarface objects and designscript face object in two flattened lists. The designscript list creates a list for each surface. Is there any preferred method to retrieve the list as a flattened list?
-
Backing up to the beginning, to get the solid from revit from the element class(or floor etc), the revitapi shows a geometry property but it doesn’t do anything, only when using get_Geometry function which isn’t listed in in the members list. I would love to understand why that is for future improvement of implementing the revitapi use.
-
Further exploring the forums posts’, I see that the GetInstanceGeometry() class method was put to use for the same/similar tasks but there is no reference whatsoever to there if I would like to innocently get these elements. Is there a way that should have recognized the use of this class besides searching the forum?
Just trying to improve my understanding of the revitapi orientation for better use in future coding attempts
