Advanced Revit Development: Mastering Spatial Curves

How can you create spatial curves in Revit?

If you’re familiar with Revit, you’ll know that creating spatial curves is straightforward by connecting spatial points. This is typically done using the CurveByPoints method, which generates curves based on a sequence of reference points.

Here’s a simple example code snippet to illustrate this process:

private void CreateAdaptiveComponentFamily(Document document)
{
    Transaction transaction = new Transaction(document);
    transaction.Start("Create Curve");

    ReferencePointArray refPointArray = new ReferencePointArray();

    for (int i = 0; i < ListData.ListX.Count; i++)
    {
        ReferencePoint referencePoint = document.FamilyCreate.NewReferencePoint(
            new XYZ(
                ListData.ListX[i] / 304.8,
                ListData.ListY[i] / 304.8,
                ListData.ListZ[i] / 304.8));

        refPointArray.Append(referencePoint);
    }

    CurveByPoints curve = document.FamilyCreate.NewCurveByPoints(refPointArray);
    transaction.Commit();
}
