Hello, I’m trying to draw rebar shapes using detail lines inside a detailing section view. I’ve been using the “BIM4STRUC.rebar” custom node to get rebar shape, inside Dynamo the rebar shape was show but the “Detailing curve” is returning a null value and when I run the script inside Revit it don’t…

[image] Actually the line was been drawing in Revit, but under the actual rebar. Whoever I can’t select the lines, they where displayed in a blue tone similar to a link

@danielfgpontes , you need single lines! [grafik]

Thank for your answer but even when using single lines it still don’t work: [image]

@danielfgpontes , Are you in a floorplane or section ?

Hey, I’ve found the problem, my Dynamo version on Revit 2023 just don’t work, i just rebuild the entire thing on Dynamo from Revit 2022 and it worked, whoever the output is a bunch lines and arcs (Since Revit can’t handle polycurves). Is there a way to join the output in a single line inside Revit? …

@danielfgpontes , yes firstitem node and restitem node [grafik]

If I use the Curve.Join node the output will be a Polycurve, I can’t draw a Polycurve in Revit and it a bit redundant (Curves > Polycurve (Get centerline script) > Explode > Polycurve), what I need is: Curves > Joined detail curves. Following the previous workflow I will return to the first problem:…

@danielfgpontes , a real polycurve like AutoCAD does revit not support. You have always lines, and a temporary polycurve via tap-key…

I’am really curious how softwares like Graitec and Sofitisk can redraw a rebar shape in 2D as a single element, since there is apparent limitation drawing polycurves on Revit. What I’m trying is similar to this solution: [Revit Rebar 2D Detailing By Dynamo] But that’s seen to be a dead…

Is it not funny that Revit does not support the most fundamental geometrical entities? Without robust core functionality not even dynamo or coding helps ones case…
