Hi guys,
I’m a new user here. Watched the tutorial posted in 2020 (Rhino models into Revit for quick drawings with Rhino.Inside.Revit) And have no clue where I can find the following
Can anyone tell me about its name/ command in the latest version?

Thanks a lot,

Thats the ‘Key/Value Search’ in the sets tab
Thanks heaps for your prompt answer, mate!
Sorry, if you don’t mind, I have two more questions related to this topic.
Q1. I have all these modeled in Rhino, but why is this end showing ‘empty generic data parameter’?
Q2.
What the name/ command of these two?
Thanks in advance.
Q1 - just a guess, but as ‘on contours’ is nested under BUILDINGS under SITE, the syntax is probably wrong. its probably SITE::BUILDINGS::On Contours or something like that. I’m not really a geometry by layer kind of guy myself, so i don’t know the syntax of nested layers. What is that layer name to geo component? as in who made the plugin?
Basically, I was trying to follow and replicate what has been done in the tutorial, the link to which I have included in my post.
So its elefont, here a post about nested layers and how to name them in GH. Should solve Q1
Also, small side note, id be wary of smashing a million direct shapes into your Revit Model. Expect a huge performance hit in Revit, increased filesize, increase printing times (4 times longer in some cases), loads more crashes.
Just a tip from someone who did it and lived to regret doing it.
Yeah, I tend to agree. What is your preferred workflow if you wanted to link a Rhino site model into your Revit with each component assigned to the correct categories in Revit? For example, surrounding buildings => Mass, topo => toposolid, and roads => Mass or Generic Model?
I use the new component family, and free form geometry a lot. Then you can choose categories, sub cats, materials, use view templates to control them. Use them in multiple projects/files if needed.
Thank you so much! I have finally converted all the elements from Rhino into Revit, except for the topo mesh, which resulted in a warning saying it failed to convert the geometry.
yeah, youll need to have a template, and pass the geo through a component family form first.
Something like this will be useful. I have it saved in my starting template.
I was more talking about that for the buildings than the topo, just create a revit topo with Add Topography
Bro, your script is amazing.
All thanks to the forums mate. I’d be nothing without the help I get in here.
That is so true.
