Hi guys, I’ve been looking at different methods to turn dynamo geometry into Revit families.
I have found KFamily Insert node from Synthesize package to be very flexible.
However, I can’t figure out how to assign material to the family.
PS:
I’ve tried Springs Family Instance by Geometry and the built in family instance placement nodes. None are foolproof.
All help are welcome, including pointers on the general workflow for turning Dynamo shapes into Revit families.
For the springs node, and the out of the box FamilyType.ByGeometry node the material in question has to exist in the family template, not your project.
Not sure how KFamilyInsert deals with this.

that node works a different way than ootb or springs…a really complicated node, with many many options
but something here maybe
