Dynamo: Sections By Curve (Part 1)

How to create curved section in revit? We will learn how to create a section by a selected line, arch, polyline, spline, circle or any other curve, and make a Dynamo script that creates a row of sections on a curve — no coding wizardry required! Just 28 nodes, no code and vanilla Dynamo, making section automation a breeze. Say goodbye to manual headaches! In this two-part tutorial, we dive into the Dynamo magic that automates the process effortlessly. ⏰ **Time-Codes:** - 00:00 - Introduction to the Curve-Based Section Challenge - 00:42 - Unveiling Manual Workarounds' Limitations - 01:35 - The Plan For Automation - 02:23 - Actual Beggining Of The Lesson - 02:42 - Curve Magic - 07:13 - Vector Magic - 10:08 - Creation Of A Coordinate System - 17:31 - Creation Of A Section - 17:53 - The Result - 18:51 - Additional Workaround - 20:47 - Final Result! 👉 **Part One:** We will learn how to create a section by a selected line, arch, polyline, spline, circle or any other curve, and make a Dynamo script that creates a row of sections on a curve — no coding wizardry required!
