thank for sharing this video. I have a toposolid element that is intersected and cutted by some void elements. I want to extract the surfaces, but it is not possible. i try different ways. For example i recive this error: "failed to trim surface with polycurve loop." what should i do?
Yes generally for very heavy/large topographies you will tend to get these types of warnings. For heavy intersections like this I tend to work with Rhino and Rhino Inside which runs into less of these types of errors these days.
Hello Guru. Awesome piece of tutorial. I'm looking for the way for walls by mass face creation using Dynamo. Wall.ByFace node didn't work for me. Could you point a direction to head to?
I believe the node only works with natively created Revit masses, maybe the issue? See here for similar issues: forum.dynamobim.com/t/wall-byface-node-reporting-nulls/24137
Thanks, this was really helpful wondering if there is a way to offset a surface parallel to the original to get smaller or larger surfaces (not normal to the original)
You're welcome Hazem. If you wanted to inset/offset a surface then getting its perimeter curves, offsetting those and then patching into a new surface them would work for most planar/closed surfaces.
3:39 Surface.Closed shows "false". Could it be because the resultant surface has open boundaries? "True" case could be for example for spherical surface or for surfaces forming a cuboid.
A closed surface is typically untrimmed, so not defined by nurbs edges and without a singular UV domain. There's a good discussion about it here; forum.dynamobim.com/t/closed-vs-open-surfaces-in-dynamo-and-retriving-their-uvs/32419

very useful for mankind
Thanks!
How to check the point is on given surface or plane?
Probably the easiest way is to use geometry.closestpointto and check if distance between the point snd original is 0.
@@AussieBIMGuru sure, I will check

Hello Bro. I can not find node “Panel.PanelQuad” .It isn’t have in package LunchBox
Unfortunately Lunchbox is no longer supported in Dynamo.
