Is there a plugin to calculate (approximately) the number of polygons in a revit file ?

Hello everyone. I have a big project with 20+ linked models. I'd be interested to know which models consume the most polygons. What would be amazing is to have a plugin in Revit which analyses all linked models currently in the file and shows the number of polygons per model.

Then the other step would be to show which elements in a model take up the most polygons ?

 

example : in a SITE model, we discovered that the exterior railings that delimited the property limit were far too detailed and that they consumed a huge amount of polygons. This made things like exports in Navisworks, Enscape, renders etc. much longer than needed.

Thanks in advance for the ideas folks.

You do not need a plugin. You can do something easily with Dynamo.

I quite often use something like this to check the models

Basic Example:

Revit - Doors.png

Dynamo - Faces.png

 

You can further refine this or have it export to Excel or write a value in a parameter of the family (e.g. in Comments "Too Many Faces") etc.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

Well - it will be difficult, because not everything is a polygon. Much of what is under the hood is ACIS modeling which doesn't use polygons but solids.

Here is the geometry behind a round column.

Very different from something like 3DS Max that only knows triangles. When that column goes into 3DS Max - It might be 10 triangles or 100 triangles.
