Provide option to enable/disable auto-simplify of TopoSolids larger than 10K

Provide option to enable/disable auto-simplify of TopoSolids larger than 10K

As I understand it, a linked or imported Toposolid in 2024 that contains more than 10K points will have the simplification option automatically applied to maintain the number of points at the 10K threshold to maintain optimal performance. When sharing surfaces from Civil 3D, 10K points is not a high number, especially with highly detailed finished grade surfaces that includes curbing, retaining walls, sidewalks, ramps, etc.  Even on smaller projects, this number can be exceeded easily.  

It would be nice to have control over the threshold number or even add ability to enable/disable auto-simplification.

Big issue for mee too, please remove the limit

Furthermore, even if < 10k, apparently Revit does a brand new triangulation based on points and polyline vertexes, ignoring discontinuities. So where the Civil3D modeler produces long 3D faces (not a compact shape) Revit new triangulation produces a complete different result.

Status changed to: Implemented

We are pleased to say that this has been implemented in Revit 2026! Thank you for your contribution to improving Revit!
