New DynamoRevit Nodes

on February 1, 2017

Explore CORE Studio’s latest contribution to DynamoRevit. We added a lot of new nodes which are partly already released with Dynamo 1.2 and will fully be available with the next Dynamo release. There are a lot of new nodes for creating and manipulating annotations, accessing element properties, manipulating existing locations and entirely new features like creating family types from dynamo geometries or creating global parameters. We added a list containing all new nodes below:

Annotations

Draw and query detail curves by dynamo curves
Create dimensions by elements or manipulate dimension properties
Make filled regions by outline and access filled region types
Place revision clouds by outline curves like polygons
Tag any element in Revit directly through Dynamo
Place text notes in views, access their properties and text note types

Tag Walls and place Dimensions in Dynamo

Material

Access Material properties like Name, Shininess, Smoothness, Transparency, SurfacePatternColor, MaterialClass, MaterialCategory, CutPatternColor, Color, CutPatternId, AppearanceParameters, ThermalParameters, StructuralParameters

Selection

Select multiple edges from elements

Elements

Create rooms by location point
Get room boundaries as curves
Create reference planes by points
Get location point or curve and manipulate them with the set location node
Move elements by vector
Access element materials
Create new revisions using dynamo
Create wall by face
Access Revit’s shape editor for roofs and floors
Create curtain systems by face

Create Wall by Face in Dynamo

Families

Access properties like host element of family and type
Create new family types by dynamo geometry

Create new Family types from Dynamo geometry

Document

GetSurveyPoint and
GetBasePoint give you direct access to the document’s coordinates

Parameters

Access parameter properties like: HasValue, IsReadOnly, IsShared, Group, ParameterType, Id, UnitType, ParameterByName, SetValue, StorageType, SharedParameterFile,
Create shared or project parameters
Create global parameters (from Revit 2017)
Access global parameter properties

Filter

Create Parameter Filters by filter rules
Create Filter Rules by Rule Types
Create new Override graphic settings

Performance Adviser

Run Revit’s performance adviser directly in dynamo and explore failure messages

UI Nodes

And several UI nodes to access elements like: Phase, Revision, FilledRegionType, RevisionNumbering, RevisionNumberType, ParameterType, BuiltInParameterGroup, RevisionVisibility, DirectShapeRoomBoundingOption, FilterType, HorizontalAlignment, VerticalAlignment, RuleType
