Hi all, I have been trying to reference a series of Breps from Rhino and bring them in Revit as Generic models. All success with the exception that, the collection of Breps are all together and not separated. !

How can I bring each Brep in its own Generic Model ?

If you are using ‘Add Geometry DirectShape’ you need to Graft the ‘Geometry’ input like this.

Thank you so much Kike. I am bringing them in with component family, as I want them editable in Revit. And initially I was grafting at the Geometry output node, not at the component entry Geometry.

Now, I was wondering how to extract the area for this Generic models? or better how to bring them to Revit staright with the Area Parameter?

DirectShapes are not editable. And they dont include any native parameters such as Volume, Area etc. You can calculate their area, volume and assign its values to a custom parameter.

I made it with Family Component to Generic Models category. They are all editable in Revit. But I need to extract their areas in Revit.
