Description When it comes to Revit we can say that parameters are one of the most important features there is, it allows users to dynamically update and change the model according to parameter values. This kind of flexibility is what drove many companies to chose Revit over other BIM providers. When developing Revit Add-ins thatRead more

Description Controllers may tend to be overcrowded when developing large scale applications. Controllers often become the space of multiple responsibilities and complex logic. A good approach would be to separate this logic into separate containers and access them from the controller. This is exactly what MediatR does (see Mediator Design Pattern). MediatR providesRead more
Description In our previous article we have made a live connection with Autocad. We create a class called “AutocadConnection”. In this article we will query the document using a console application and we will print out some information regarding our open Autocad application. Code

Description One of the major challenges while working in Dynamo was to retrieve data from external sources. While reading autocad files was somehow possible through external sources (sat exports, excel coordinate representation, etc) a live connection was not possible for a long time. At that time I found 2 methods to make a connection withRead more
Description In RevitAPI not all objects have exposed parameters as properties. Some basic level properties can be directly accessed using the getter (e.g. the element name, level name), but other elements are more complicated because they are not directly defined but they descend directly from a base class (FamilyInstance). Both windows and doors are familyinstances,Read more
