I’m having trouble creating polycurves out of these floors that have modified point levels compared to a regular one. Is there a way to get these boundaries as a closed curve?
Hi!
I am afraid that the element sketch might be always flat, regardless to modified elevations of it’s points (it is so in Revit).
You can try the code below. Rather than using sketch it extracts edges from top faces of the floor and tries to remove duplicates/internal edges. Seems to work. As a result you can get a 3D polycurve with elevated points.
import clr
#The inputs to this node will be stored as a list in the IN variables.
floors = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
clr.AddReference("RevitNodes")
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion)
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
output = []
for f in floors:
curve_list = []
top_face_refs = HostObjectUtils.GetTopFaces(f)
top_faces = []
temp_edges = []
#get all edges
for face_ref in top_face_refs:
face = doc.GetElement(face_ref).GetGeometryObjectFromReference(face_ref)
if not face is None:
top_faces.append(face)
edge_arrays = face.EdgeLoops
for edges in edge_arrays:
for e in edges:
temp_edges.append(e)
#remove internal edges
for e in temp_edges:
f0 = e.GetFace(0)
f1 = e.GetFace(1)
valid = False
if f0 is None:
valid = True
else:
if not f0 in top_faces:
valid = True
if f1 is None:
valid = True
else:
if not f1 in top_faces:
valid = True
if valid:
#edge_list.append(e)
c = e.AsCurve()
curve_list.append(c.ToProtoType())
output.append(curve_list)
#Assign your output to the OUT variable.
OUT = output
