Increase Polyline Amount On Curve for .dxf Export

Anonymous

Hello all, 

 

I am trying to export from Revit into another software and the polylines are rebuilt pretty crude when doing so. Is there a setting I can adjust to increase the polyline count? 

 

I can't seems to find another thread with this same issue with respect to .dxf files. 

 

Thank you!, 

Brad

Crude and segment curves output in DWG/DXF has been raised several times on this forum as well as other forums and blogs. In Revit there is no such option...depending on the case/geometry, you could be able to refine the Mesh/Polylines in the end Application

 

I have not experienced that myself, but I have seen it in files from others, usually in specific display mode (the shaded or realistic) and namely small fabrication parts which are actually smaller than what should/could be modeled in Revit.

AutoCAD has Polyline edit and you can modify the polyline to be curved smooth or jagged. Unless you are looking for specific workflow.

Revit "Polyline"?  What do you mean by "polylines are rebuilt pretty crude"?
