RiR Sub Element Roof Crease Lines

Hello,

I am building a roof using Rhino. I made sure all faces were planar before reconstructing the the roof in Revit. I am getting what seem to be ‘ghost’ creases that are not actually defining any geometry. I have tried resetting the geometry, updating the points in revit, and creating a new roof. Having the lines are not make or break but I wanted to understand if there were a ‘bullet proof’ way of resolving them.

I have attached the script I am using with internalized data.

Hi Parker,

What version of Rhino & Revit are you targeting?

Hi @Japhy ,

Thanks for your response.

Thanks,

Can you internalize the geometry to avoid the plugins? Thanks!

This should take care of the plugins.

There are slight errors in your points elevations.

Type units into your Rhino command line and set the distance display all the way up.

Take measurements where things should be flat and you will see that they are a little off, which creates the extra creases.

Thanks Japhy,

Thanks for catching this!

I was using the planar surface tool as a way of checking that the points were all at the correct height (in plane). I guess there is a tolerance for what rhino considers to be a planar curve?

They are slight variations, so most likely below the Absolute Tolerance or Display Precision, or using a text panel to view which will mess with floating point numbers like these.

SetPT is a quick way to get them back square.
