Thank you
Hi everyone,
first I would like to thank all people here on helping to reduce the huge amount of work that it takes to create proper area plans in Revit.
I am only using Dynamo for about a week now, and I’m trying to “BIMMIFY” a huge project of about 4000 rooms that was modeled and design in revit.
Since people dind’t use revit to proper develop such project I acepted the challenge of trying to turn it into na actual BIM project.
I have been trying to recreate this script but it happens that the area separator lines it produces don’t follow area rules like the ones you draw mannualy can, is there a way to change this?
Dear Kulkul,
I read your post on how to create Area boundaries based on the walls in revit in this post from Emily: http://dynamobim.org/forums/topic/automation-of-area-boundary-lines/
However, what i get were not the Area Boundaries lines but a series of blue lines (which cannot be selected). May I know what I did wrong here? I am using Revit 2018.
Also, is that possible that this code can be used for Revit file with links-Walls (the walls is in the link but not in the file itself)
Thanks…
Those blue lines are the preview of the dynamo geometry being shown in Revit. It may be that you are not looking at an area plan or have the area lines turned off in that view by default.
It is possible to get walls from linked models and use them to generate the area boundaries similar to how this script worked. Just feed the linked model elements into the Element.Location node instead of the all elements of category node. Best to get the area boundaries working in the current document first before you start that though.
