I have been having some problems with the BoundingBox.IsEmpty and BoundingBox.Contains nodes. I figured I could pass in a list of bounding boxes and a list of points and something like BoundingBox.IsEmpty would return a true/false result for any box that contained a point from the point list. This s…

Ok, @Yna_Db , I’ll bite… I may be misunderstanding your issue here, but I would not go through all that sorting and stacking and intersecting etc. Won’t the point.project node suffice? If I have understood you correctly you can also filter out all the boxes which already have a parameter for excavati…

hmm that seems to return some true values. I get a list of 180 true values, but for some reason that bounding box dosent tie back to the specific revit family it was created from? What I was trying to do is pass a string to a revit family based on the True/False Result. Right now the first 180 revit…

List.UniqueItems could be responsible…

I pulled directly off the BoundingBox.Contains Node, i just had UniqueItems as a way to debug and see if i was actually getting any True results. [image] [image]

Could you develop your Geometry.BoundingBox and BoundingBox.Contains nodes to show the resulting lists? (use Springs.Watch+ to display the data’s in a pop-up if needed)

Hi @lmanos [image] lmanos: What I was trying to do is pass a string to a revit family based on the True/False Result. You need to map your booleans list with families.

@Yna_Db I have my new BoundingBox.Contains list but due to checking 180 points in 550 cubes I have 99000 results. (180x550=99000), to @Kulkul ’s point I’m not quite sure how to take something like a list of 550 entries from an Element.Id node and compare that with the 99K results of the BoundingBox.C…

Kulkul will probably have a better idea but I would personally try to combine the bounding boxes into only one if possible…

What does your list look like that is coming out of the contains node. You don’t want to flatten the list. you need to manage the data. What is the end result as well. do you just need to know if the bounding box contains a single point or all the points? Or vise versa do you need to know if a poin…

I think this should do it for you.
