Filter by Element Type

For analytical modeling with Dynamo, use these nodes to determine whether an analytical or physical element is linear or planar.

FilterElements.IsLinearElement Determines if the given object is a linear physical or analytical element
Library		Dynamo4AM → Utilities → FilterElements
Input	obj	Object to check.
Output	bool	Whether the object is a linear physical or analytical element.
Remarks		Linear elements are: framing (beams and braces) and columns.
FilterElements.IsPlanarElement Determines if the given object is a planar physical or analytical element
Library		Dynamo4AM → Utilities → FilterElements
Input	obj	Object to check.
Output	bool	Whether the object is a planar physical or analytical element.
Remarks		Planar elements are: floors and walls.
