How to convert Cuboid to Element in Revit by Dynamo ?

The concept of this Dynamo node is to create an invisible box in a parking lot, and Revit will detect any elements that intersect with this box. It will also highlight those elements for easy rechecking.

 

I've tried to convert a cuboid to an element in a Revit file, but I haven't found a node to make that happen. Does anyone know how to solve this?

 

Here's my Dynamo node so far.

One possible method is to use DirectShape.ByGeometry.
Please try it.

You can also find information on Dynamo in this Forum.

I am not sure what you actually want. You mention "Revit will detect any elements that intersect with this box".

What do you mean by this. Regular elements will not detect any elements that intersect. Room elements are the only objects that knows what  is inside that "box" (and not all revit categories are "detected").

So what do you expect from this?

 

I can imagine that you could make a transparent family (e.g generic family) with  variable dimensions. Based on the dynamo script you could place a family instance and then change the dimensions to the desired values based from the Dynamo script (or maybe fixed size boxes is enough). However Revit itself will not detect what is inside the box. You can use dynamo again to detect which elements intersect.

 

Maybe more details from your side can help us to give you better answers.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

Thanks for your advise. I've tried it and I found that it gives me a lot of time for loading the result (still loading) which is I don't know why.

Sorry for my english its difficult to explain what I want.

 

It's something like Clash Detection. I know that Revit can't detect which element is intersect that why I try to do Dynamo script.

 

And this script will create Bounding Box on top of parking lot and this script will detect something that was model into the box (Which mean illegal in our country which is not allow anything to obstruct in parking lot) or intersect with the box then the script will create a square element wrap around those element.

 

but what I struggle is that I can't convert Cuboid (Which is wrap around intersect element) into element in Revit because in the next step I will make these Cuboid into color.

 

I hopes it help you understand me better.
