Hello.
Im trying to place dimensions with dynamo. As a reference I want to use Detail lines. But i can not create them in the Vertical views like elevations and sections. Looks like Dynamo can create them only for the floor planes or ceilings views.
Maximum what I reached its projection of Horizontal line onto construction plane of Dynamo and Vert lines are not placed at all.
But I need vertical lines only. Any ideas how can change orientation of construction plane in Dynamo. Or how I can place detail lines in sections\elevation views in general:
But I donât understand what is going on here. The node for detail lines doesnât ask for any sketch planes. And it still started to work fine. Where is this sketch plane based within dynamo or how the nature of this sketch plane is arranged in this Dynamo Engine? In another words where can I check it, with which node can I see a current sketch plane within Dynamo?
As long as the active sketchplane is set to the sections view plane before the DetailCurve is called to be generated then the line will be created. I will show an order of operations example and an example of showing the active workplace in the morning. (It is a PostableCommand called ShowWorkPlane.)
I need to increase a speed of the drawings production. I have metal cladding walls Elevations. And I can not put any dimensions onto anythings except Axes and lines. Looks like this subject is still not developed in dynamo.
I tried to extract ref planes from families and I didnât find the way how to do it. I tried with faces (RevitFaceReference.FromDynamoSurface) but eventually it didnât work as well. So got first results only with liens.Do you have any idea how can I use surfaces of objects or anything else for Dimension creations ?
I have been doing quite a lot of work on this, it depends quite how your walls are builtâŚ
As Ewan posted, if itâs a regular wall then absolutely, have a look at his link and we can customise it for you.
If itâs some kind of mass family, yeah probably I can help?
If itâs curtain walling, umm⌠never tried, but Iâd be interested to have a go
It would be great if you could post a really stripped down RVT with a couple of bits of your wall in and perhaps the 1 view you want.
For example, this graph is designed to dim all walls in a plan view⌠So itâs not quite what you want, but may be part of the solution. DimWallsActivePlanView.dyn (113.7 KB)
I canât find View.Plane node, although 1) âClockworkâ has been installed, 2) âClockwork for Dynamo 2.xâ shows error, when I am trying to install it.
