How to use a PolyCurve build a Swept Blend?

I have joined multi curve to one polycurve by Dynamo. But I can’t select and use it to create a swept blend element.
Anyone could help? Thanks.

@shanhongL6JRE

use point at parameter where 0 is the startpoint of the poly curve and 1 is the endpoint
now create a circle at point 0
create a square at point one
create your swept blend

Hi Marcel, Thanks for your rely. I only know the profiles at point 0 and at Point 107, and the Swept Blend in Revit not allow multi curve, that’s why I joined the multi model line in a single polycurve.

So you are attempting to use this line (grouped curves -> polycurve) as the path for sweeping between two different profiles? Your background preview looks like the path is flat in the Z direction, correct? Can you sketch the final intent and post a pic? Then we can offer the best advice :grinning:

Hi Ewan, Thanks for your rely. Yes, you are right. I will model a bridge with different profiles between start and end points. Thanks for your help.

You will need to first order your curves, then place profiles at points along the reference Polycurve, before creating a solid. I have demonstrated this with Circle profiles to make a ‘horn’ using your layout curve.
Good luck! :wink:
Post back with how you got on after you have tried to implement this for the benefit of others on the forum. :grinning:

Hi Ewan, Thanks for your help. In my case, I only know the start and end point section profile, I don’t know the mid cross section profile. The attached two cross sections profile maybe a bit complicated, but I even used two very simple hexagon and circle cross sections, it still doesn’t work.

Try using the node PolyCurve by Profile Family Type to get your geometry.

Hello Ewan_Opie
I really want to know how to use this node!
I encountered the same questions…
