Hi Everyone

i am using revit 2019.

thanks in advance.

Try using element. Geometry before topography. Mesh

Sorry, but a linked Civil 3d topo is a special element and its geometry canā€™t be extracted from the API as far as I know. Therefore not by Dynamo either.

Hi,

First I am a total Dynamo beginner.

I use the Revit INSERT, LINK TOPOGRAPHY command to link to a Civil 3D topography via ADC / BIM360. Then I use the script I leaned at my Dynamo class, it works fine with Revit topo:

I receive the error message: Warning: Internal error, please report: Dereferencing a non-pointer.
Is it still not possible?

Topography Links can be extracted using Dynamo
The ā€˜trickā€™ is Topography Surfaces can be Selected using TAB cycling.

Using Select Model Element -
Rather selecting the TopographyLink (First Option), You can TAB Cycle in Revit to select the Model Element TopographySurface (Second Option)

Yes, but you canā€™t extract the geometry for use in Dynamo to the extent of my knowledge. Am I wrong?
