I am trying to create a “Curtain System” by face based on a Dynamo geometry. So far I always used a “Conceptual Mass” and the “ImportInstance.ByGeometry” node, but this time I would like to use some existing edges in the Revit project file as the basis for my geometry.
Is there a way to still use the “ImportInstance.ByGeometry” node or should I try something different?
I also thought - as a kind of plan B - whether it would be possible to build a script that although it points to a “Conceptual Mass” family can “Select Edges” from the main Revit project file (load in background, select element by ID … but then how do I specify which edge I need?)
Note, the graph above obviously doesn’t work. The two elements used to select edges from are a roof and a floor slab (see image below). They do not align at all, meaning they have a different curvature, start and end point coordinates and distance to each other.
Any tips and suggestions welcome.
Thanks for your help.
