Hi Gavin, in my humble opinion, your work is really THE reference for anyone looking for a solid learning base for Revit and Dynamo. Respect.

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Thanks for the kind words and ongoing support!

[@ed_chaves]

When no need to model kind of thing but tutorial seems very interesting. Thank you , nice to learn with your excellent materials.

[@AussieBIMGuru]

You're most welcome! It is indeed a very specific scenario.

Hi Gavin, amazing as always 👍

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Thanks Immi!

Wow i saw another video for the same facade model and he used like 10 parameters OMG

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Yep many ways to approach the Al Bahar facade!

[@atallahahmed9983]

Keep good work

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Thanks will do!

Hello there! Thank you for the tutorial. I am trying to create different facade pattern by combining your previous intelligent panel tutorial. Folding parameters are working just fine but, when I place the family on to the project with dynamo, it gets flattened towards the mass. Any Idea why this happens and how can I solve this problem?

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Assuming you want it to hug a curved surface you may need to redevelop the family to bend, so instead of a 4 point object you may need a 9 point for example, so it can support curvature to its edges and underlying surface. The example I showed here is actually flat when placed, and gradually follows the curvature in a faceted fashion.

[@andrelucasai]

Hey, Gavin. Great tutorial as always! That dynamo script of the 3-part series videos about intelligent facades doesn't work anymore?

[@AussieBIMGuru]

It does, but this is a better workflow as it can be run at the project level instead of the mass level.

Me estrese y llore mucho de verdad revit no te entiendo, gracias por el tutorial perdon por mi comportamiento, no fui capaz de completar la fachada porque en dynamo no tengo una opcion que tu si pero prefiero rendirme a seguir sufriendo

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Cálmate :) Tengo una copia de mi familia en github como referencia si ayuda: github.com/aussieBIMguru/Revit-Files/blob/master/Families/ABG_201207_AlBahar1.zip

[@fcahz7851]

Hi! Amazing video. Question: Could I use the nodes from the surface UV as a guide for dynamo to place the family element? Thanks!

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Yes this should be possible. I have another video on the channel where I use rhino inside and lunchbox UV to do that also.

[@rezwanulhoque117]

hello, guru nice work. If possible can you make a tutorial of solar analysis with dynamo and also with this panel. thank you

[@AussieBIMGuru]

Unfortunately I no longer use Dynamo for solar analysis, as the Ladybug package hasn't worked since Revit 2019. In tomorrow's video I'll show how to use Rhino Inside to access the Ladybug package for Grasshopper to guide the sun angle however. I have an older video here where I used Ladybug whilst it still worked which might be of interest; kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4Kmm4dne6t4m6s

[@rezwanulhoque117]

@@AussieBIMGuru ok, thanks.

[@lananhle8677]

It's so great! But I would like to give you a question: How can you use Instance Parameters in Type Parameter formulas?

[@AussieBIMGuru]

You can't, it wouldn't make sense to. The only case where you can is if you have a nonshared nested family - you can associate instance and type parmameters to its type parameters at the host family level.

[@lananhle8677]

The things here is- I apsolutely followed all of your steps, just only thing i can't do is changing the number of Open facter as Instance Parameters as you did. Would you pls give me some advices for that ?

[@AussieBIMGuru]

@@lananhle8677 it sounds like some of the necessary parameters aren't instance based. Make sure in the family editor their names all show a (default) after. If so they should work. Make sure the open factor is of the data type Number also.

[@lananhle8677]

@@AussieBIMGuru Thank you for that. I did it! ^^
