Import DWG Issue #2

Closed plmkonji closed 3 years ago

plmkonji commented 3 years ago

I apologize if this is not the correct place to post this.

I am using the Import DWG node and would like to be able to get the 3D autocad imports to show up in all views of the Revit family file. Currently there is only an option to specify a single view. If not possible, are there any alternative solutions?

Thank you and great package!

Hi, I'm glad you found the package useful. You will find the updated Import Dwg node in the Genius Loci package version 2021.6.3. import DWG

Hey Alban,

Is it possible to specify in the Import DWG node what Revit drawing the CAD is being imported into? I'm trying to run a batch process and the script isn't working correctly. I'm using the Background.Open node from the Orchid package to open several Revit families and would like to import a different CAD drawing into each based on the same name of the file.

Hi, This is not currently possible. This requires an input Document as for the Export DWG node. export

For your information, Orchid Documents aren't compatible with other custom nodes, unlike the Applications.OpenDocumentFile node of Rhythm package.

Your workflow is very specific so unfortunately I can't spend time modifying the script and adding the Document input only for you. Cheers,

No problem and I understand, thanks for the quick response!
