Wall.ByFace operation failed

Hello all,

I get an error message with the Wall.ByFace node that I can’t resolve.

Anyone any idea?

The node returns the following error.
Warning: Wall.ByFace operation failed.
The selected face cannot be used to create a wall. Please use a mass face instead.

Who can help me further?
Thanks in advance!

Hi @Fernand77 …have you tried on a mass surface ?

Hi Sovitek,

I am now using an Element surface.
Is there an easy way to convert an Element surface to a Mass surface?

Hello,

I had found a solution by importing the surface (which was created under dynamo) in a revit family

(I don’t know if this can work for you)

Hi Christian,

I actually want the reverse.
I have a revit element from which I want to use a surface in Dynamo to control the Wall.ByFace node.

But this node doesn’t seem to accept Revit face (Element.Faces).

I understand I had also tried it like that but not presented in the script through an auxiliary family

The node to create the family was Package Springs Node 210.1.1
You can always try while waiting for a more suitable solution.
