I’ve noticed that in Grasshopper, annotations for these views only appear if Revit is opened first. If the views are closed, the annotations won’t show up. If I have 100 sheets, it becomes quite cumbersome.
Correct, to create a dimension via the Revit API its looking for a Line for the offset and Reference Array of the points. Dimensions in Revit have specific requirements for the View and reference sub-elements, so a bit tricky to do programmatically.
Are you creating dimensions or just previewing?
"I find that these annotations only appear if the views are active . When I export the PDF, I can’t see the annotations if they’re not in the active window.So, do I need to open each view that needs annotation to ensure it’s active before exporting?
Not seeing that behavior in a quick test but that wouldn’t surprise me. Much like when Querying Elements in views the View needs to generated to query.
You can open a list of Views with the open View component.
how can I pop up a circle radius dimension in Revit by Grasshopper script through Rhino.Inside.Revit?
I have used a GH script that shows the Radius dimension in Rhino but not in Revit.
I appreciate your help.
Hi Obidul,
Currently we only have Linear and Angular dimension components, i’ve added a feature request for Radial as well.
Hi Japhy! I think I have seen these components, but I can’t find any of them. I checked that they were released with v.1.16, and I have v.1.29. If they are not removed from the current lib, could it be because of rvt25 and Rhino 8? Are they only available in Rhino7? Thanks!
Okey.. just can’t find them via searching key words, they are there unter model tab
