Access the Rhino.Inside.Revit component “AddGeometryDirectShape”

[Esther2 (Esther)]

Hello!

I’m trying to access the Rhino.Inside.Revit component “AddGeometryDirectShape” just like explained in the guides (Rhino.Inside®.Revit), but I get null.
Is it because that component is not available? Or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you very much in advance.

Please see below the code:

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;

using Rhino;
using Rhino.Geometry;

using Grasshopper;
using Grasshopper.Kernel;
using Grasshopper.Kernel.Data;
using Grasshopper.Kernel.Types;

using DB = Autodesk.Revit.DB;
using UI = Autodesk.Revit.UI;

using RIR = RhinoInside.Revit;
using RhinoInside.Revit.Convert.Geometry;

using Rhino.NodeInCode;

private void RunScript(object x, object y, ref object A)
{

var addGeomDirectshape = Rhino.NodeInCode.Components.FindComponent("RhinoInside_AddGeometryDirectShape");
if (addGeomDirectshape == null) 
{
  throw new Exception("One or more of the necessary components are not available as node-in-code");
}

And the following code is the result I had. Works in my local machine. private void RunScript(Brep BREP, ref object DS) { // AddMaterial component to create a material var queryMaterials = Components.FindComponent("RhinoInside_QueryMaterials"); // and AddGeometryDirectShape to create a DirectShape element in Revit var a…

Hi Japhy,

Sure! Please find attached.

I’ve checked the link you sent and tested the part where the components are called, and I still get the error.

Many thanks!
