Rhinoceros 7 inside Revit
We've released Rhino 7:
The release of Rhino 7 will effect who can run Rhino.Inside.Revit. Now Rhino 7 commercial, educational or evaluation (90 days)is required to run in Revit.
A new Rhino.Inside.Revit build is available:
- Improved geometry conversion:
- If normal geometry conversion fails, an SAT format is attempted. This improves what geometry can pass to Revit, like SubD models, but can be slower in difficult cases.
- Surface orientation is maintained.
- Solids with singular edges handled.
- Trim curve accuracy increased.
- New Project/Site Location and Project Information components.
- Element Location updated for Directshapes.
- Fixed a units conversion problem on Bitmap Asset components.
- Fixed BasePoint Location for shared locations like Survey Points.
- Implemented Bake… right-click context menu into Categories, Line Patterns, Materials and Graphical Elements into Rhino blocks.
- Levels and Shared Site are baked as named CPlanes in Rhino through a right-click.
New tutorials and learning material:
There is a growing number of resources to help understand how to use this new technology in your workflows:
- Dynamo and Grasshopper Cheat Sheet Reference Manual by Marcello Sgambelluri is now available on Amazon. A great reference manual with 272 pages of example workflows using both Grasshopper and Dynamo in Revit. For a discussion and review of the book visit a recent BIMThoughts Podcast or BIM after dark podcast.
- Rhino.Inside.Revit 101 Class by Oliver Thomas of Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) through LiveAcademy.TV. Olly covers the basics of the Rhino.Inside.Revit in a real-world project.
- Gavin Crump, the Aussie BIM Guru, has an 11 part YouTube series on Rhino.Inside.Revit.
- Joseph Freund of Microsol Resources demonstrates Rhino.Inside.Revit workflow, including integrating SubD objects dynamically within Revit.
