Grouping

For analytical modeling with Dynamo, use these nodes to group physical elements by category and geometrical profile.

FilterElements.GroupElementsByCategory

Groups physical elements by categories: framing, columns, floors and walls

Library Dynamo4AM → Utilities → FilterElements
Input objects List of objects to group by categories.
Output framing List of physical framing found in the input list.
columns List of physical columns found in the input list.
floors List of physical floors found in the input list.
walls List of physical walls found in the input list.
Remarks Non-physical objects are filtered out.

FilterElements.GroupElementsByGeometry

Groups physical elements by geometrical profile: linear elements or planar elements

Library Dynamo4AM → Utilities → FilterElements
Input objects List of objects to group by geometry.
Output linearElements List of linear physical elements found in the input list.
planarElements List of planar physical elements found in the input list.
Remarks Non-physical objects are filtered out.
