"my strategy: in-place mass import cad vv imported categories object style if you imported a .sat, change the layer 0 if you imported a .dwg, change the original layer choose the material apply finnish mass it just work when you import the material"

"I believe you can apply single materials to masses but you need a wall family for a wall material. So there's no other way than defining a wall (or floor or roof...) on top of the imported mass and live with all the problems revit has joining…"

"After cooking the geometry can be exported in. SAT. In revit you can create a genericmass and then you can apply walls to the faces of the geometry generated in GH."

"what are you trying to do in revit? Revit should be able to read Rhino Surfaces and BReps jsut fine. No need to convert to mesh or explode it."

Assigning materials to exported GH objects in revit

I have exported a series of surfaces to revit. I would like to assign a mesh material to them, however Revit doesn't seem to like it.i thought explode would be what i wanted, but that just deleted the object all together.many thanks collective brainSee More

Projecting image onto broken surface (anamorphic perspective)

hello helpful masses, I was wondering if 'the collective brain' could help with my problem. it came about due to the image shown just to explain kind of what i'm going for (studio image) and i've also created something similar before which was one of the bits of development so far. I am planning an installation for a university module, which is based on creating a false perspective of surfaces (i.e. skewed in 3d however looks correct from specified vantage point - co-incidentally where…See More

Knot Geometry - connecting curves tangentially

hello everybody. I'm trying to produce a knot like geometry. I have six circles, (three base circles and these have been each offset) I am trying to connect parts of these curves to produce one single line (a bit like a mobius strip, only a little more complex) please can someone advise me how to evaluate these curves to extract the points I'm searching for. The final aim is to be able to move the three base curves to modify and but maintain the geometry. I have attached the file, i have drawn…See More
