I want to create a family containing custom tiles or bricks that can be stretched to cover the whole base surface, is it possible to create such thing in Revit, without Dynamo?
Base surface of what? A wall? Why not apply the tile or brick as a wall type or a wall sweep. That's normally how it's done.
...a Stacked Wall Type is a great way to do wainscots.
What if I need something like these bricks? I don't see how this can be made as sweep profile
Cool. Yeah; that's a whole different animal. You can do that as a Line-Based array. It's a little complicated because you are arraying horizontally as well as vertically. But it's doable. The key will be to model one single brick in a separate family and nesting that family into multiple arrays. Families within families, so to speak. Is it always only two rows? It it suppose to cut the host?
It is supposed to be a wall or a part of the wall covered with this pattern. Just made such family with imported half-brick family inside. Seems to slow down the program performance.. Will it be more lightweight as a curtain wall?
Don't nest groups. In other words, avoid creating groups within other groups.
...as I indicated in my above post, the way to do it is by nesting families into families. For example: Family A (the array element) nests into Family B for making the horizontal array) and also into Family C for making the vertical array). Family B (horizontal array) nests into Family C (vertical array) . Family C is the one that is loaded into project.
...Can you open a 2017 RVT? I you can, I can post an example.
Hi..
multiple ways to approach that..
Curtain Panel
Embed and Cut the curtain wall from the wall... this will cut the entire wall, so you might need to model a solid part of wall within the curtain wall Panel...
This is some new approach.. create a generic model ( wall or surface based ), can be liner, array, or adaptive family..
place that on the wall, and use cut geometry...
Very Corbusier-ish. My question is - is this amount of detail required in the model? Can detail lines be used to 'fudge' the appearance of the bricks in views? A parametric array driven line based detail item family is very do-able, and relatively harmless to the health of the model. As you had mentioned, loading this family did slow the model down - I am not surprised. Do you require this level of detail for renderings - in that case, create a considerably simpler model with all the 3D doodads your heart desires. In the bigger picture of CDs - is it at all worth it?
