New Chameleon release today to fix the bug when trying to edit multiple parameters in a Revit family.

How do I transfer these items to revit?

Nate, you're right that is a bug.  Will get it fixed as soon as possible.  When I get a chance I'll also see if I can get the existing number parameters to come through.

 

Allan - Yes you can install chameleon for Revit 2013.  Instructions are here: http://www.revitcity.com/forums.php?action=viewthread&thread_id...

Hello! i was wondering if it is possibly to install Chameleon on revit Revit 2013?

Possible bug and a future request - The rEditParams component has the opportunity to accept multiple parameters per update, but when I get into revit, the GH Edit Parameters button only allows me to update a parameter with the P0 input. (see image below) Is something not linking properly or is there something I should be doing differently? Also, in a future release would it be possible for a component similar to the rGetGeom to bring into GH the existing numeric parameters from Revit?

I have to figure out how to send unmeshed geometry through the pipe and when that happens it should clean things up a bit.  You might try the Geometry Gym plugin that Jon is developing.  I think he is able to transfer nurbs.

As far as custom grid patterns, try the new Curtain Grid Generator command on the Revit side.  It will let you create multiple curtain grid systems on a curtain wall.  I'm working on extending that functionality too.

Another question, I see that you can transfer walls to grasshopper with the GH Geom Transfer button, I can get my curtain wall into grasshopper, the wall geo and the grid lines both show up in grasshopper as expected, but I can't figure out what type of Revit parameters can be edited on a curtain wall. I would really like to set up custom grid spacing and offsets on a floor by floor basis.

I tried the Merge Faces as you suggest, the problem is I am exporting 775 curtain panels, each has 6 extrusions as sub panels, each extrusion has 6 sides, each side has two triangles. All of a sudden I am looking at trying to process well over 50,000 triangles into a merge face command. On the bright side, Chameleon handles the massive amount of data like a champ.  I'm curious in a future release will there be any possibly of being able to transfer and edit extrusion profiles? This could prove very powerful with masses and master planning.

You can try using the Merge Faces command to simplify the geometry

Hi, Nate Holland.

I think so：as long as put the parameters of interfer to Revit Edit Params. Don't have to rebuild the geometry in  grasshopper.
