Get all the geometry embedded on a Revit family Type with Dynamo

a shot yourself

After this Revit trap, now I get geometry from family types except curtain mullions and curtain panels, which is fine. The results are solids, meshes, lines, nurbs curves, circles…

but I don’t know where they come from within the subcomponents of the families, the results are only 3D elements, where are the annotative elements as 2D lines, CAD imports, points, IFC or whatever. How is composed a family basically? How many nested families? How many geometry types? Is the geometry built inside Revit or from somewhere else? Those kind of questions

Possible solution to the active family symbol:

WombatDynamo: "The symbol is not active"

@DavidDK, that’s because I missed the for loop to iterate through the list of items . Try this one: import clr clr.AddReference('RevitAPI') from Autodesk.Revit.DB import * clr.AddReference("RevitNodes") import Revit clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements) clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion) clr.AddReference("RevitServices") import RevitServices from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager doc = DocumentManager.Instanc…
