Live Revit Element Rendering in Remote WebGL Viewer
Today, I’ll implement live real-time export of 3D geometry from a Revit add-in to a web-hosted WebGL viewer. This is an enhancement to the initial version exporting 3D element geometry to a WebGL viewer, which just generated data that I copied and pasted to hard-code it into the NodeWebGL viewer as a proof of concept.…

Script Types: Library Script
To make scripting easier, library script type is introduced in PLM. Library script is meant to contain utility functions that can be used in any other type of scripts just by importing it. So more reusing, less repeating.

Exporting 3D Element Geometry to a WebGL Viewer
Yesterday, I discussed how to get started with WebGL and demonstrated a simple 3D viewer making use of the Tiny WebGL helper Library TWGL. Today, I present the TwglExport Revit add-in to select an individual element and populate the viewer with that. To drive the WebGL viewer, we just need a bunch of vertex locations,…
