Directshape massing

[Mohammad_Nawar]

Hello Everyone,

I have quick question regarding the directshape node in dynamo which create a revit element, i am facing an issue that it shows traingle meshes in revit for some elements as the picture below, any idea why is this happen ?

Your help is appreciated.

are you creating one geometry or multiple ?

[Mohammad_Nawar]

Multiple geometries as you see in the shared picture the was two masses

[khuzaimah.ElecEng]

yes i see, i suggest to make each mass as a one geometry , using Solid,ByUnion node, i think it will be fine

[Mohammad_Nawar]

Oh sorry i understood your question wrongly yes each mass one geometry, but still showing the same issue

Especially since we don’t have a way to smooth the display of edges in Revit. Now if I want to use a m…

if there is any update regarding the same please share it

Cheers!
