Export Sections from families without accessing it .

[arh.rotaru]

Hello everyone.

I am trying to write a plugin who export DWG every sections from certain families that are in the project. I am quite new in this domain and I am doing now the first plugin tutorial. Can you recommend me a starting point? What should I search? Is there something similar with what I want to obtain?

Best regards.

Hello arh,

I don't know how new you are in this domain 🙂 but I guess you have downloaded the revit api guide already.

In most cases I find google is my best friend. Just type in "revit api dwg export" and you'll find several topics. But in advance I find myself searching the building coder pages a lot.So here are a few suggestions:

Good luck with your plugin,

Remy.
