Revit :: How To Constrain Curved Ribs On A Curved Roof Line
Jan 26, 2014
Having a time getting ribs to align 2m below top of ridge beam, and connect to curved wall below. I created one, then arrayed, but the radius changes at each 2.5 degree interval. I don't think I should have to calculate the % radius change to get the beams to do this. Some constraint button maybe?
Not sure if editing a wall profile is the best way to model this, but it's working.

I'm working on a blueprint and trying to get my roof to do something besides a straight slope, but it isn't going well. I need the roof to curve from the corners inward to the point, like the top of a Japanese pagoda.

I am attempting to add fascia to a curved roof. The fascia is built as a wall type. The fascia follows the radius of the curved roof in plan view, but not in elevation view. How to get the fascia to follow the roof curve in elevation view?

I have an assembly with a curved line made in a sketch, and a part with a point in the bottom.
I want to constrain the point to the curved line, but the regular Constrain options wont let me do so.
I am making an animation with Inventor Studio, so I need this constrain, so I later on in studio can manipulate it and insert the first part into the other.

I have drawn a rectangular double curved roof (hyperbolic paraboloid). Did that just by adjusting shape handles up and down in diagonally opposite corners.
I want to draw a grid on it mostly as a graphical thing, so its shape is evident. Have tried model lines which won't attach even when grouped.

How to create a flow arrow label for a feature line that parallels the curve?
I've a vague notion that this could be done with a dynamic block and a few fancy expressions. I'm comfortable with expressions, but I've never used dynamic blocks at all, so I wouldn't know where to start.
To be clear, I know curved text is possible, but I'm looking for a curved line (ie an arc) that would look 'parallel' to the arc of the feature line (ie have the same centre point). This would have to be dynamic to allow for different radii and for flipping to the left and right side of the feature line.

I am trying to make support ribs on a curved plastic surface to make the construction stiffer for a snow puncher.
(Just like on the attached picture, "pic 1".)
But I am having trouble doing this over the curved surface towards the top end of the rib.
As is now I sketch the shape of the rib in both ends and loft it over a sketch (see attached picture, "pic 2"), and then revolve to get the ends.
But this gives problems, result is not good and it's very time consuming.
If this was on a flat surface it would be easier, but now I get a lip along the loft and along the revolve on the top end of the rib.
I'm using Inventor Professional 2013 Student Version.

I am currently working in a facade that has a stylized gondola on it. The gondola has curved walls for the sides, and I need to have the curved cut to give it the shape. The tools I know are for straight walls, not curved. and the Opening/wall makes a squared opening, not curved.

I have curved underbelly of a massive stair. In order to draw the the detail, I would like to pick this curved line of the underbelly to make a hatch but unable to. Is there a way around this or is this just something I have to work around?

I'm designing a press for a skateboard similar to: Rib Press
I have the board modeled: (see attached)
Now what i want to do is generate those ribs as seen in the picture.
I tried creating a block that intersected with the board and tried to split the rib at the surface, but to no avail. I think the issue has something to do with the curve of the board in two directions, but i can't seem to get it right.
if you are having trouble visualizing what i'm asking about, look at this. I want to be able to figure out the exact shape of those center ribs to print and eventually cut out of wood.

I am trying to constrain a curved wheel to a round, steel track. No constraint has been effective so far. Is there anything I can do to make the wheels stay on track?

I want to extrude a big number of pillars to a rather complicated surface and that works out fine. But each end of the pillars warps around the surface and I want them just to go up to it and stop with a resulting horizontal face.

I draw a curved line and would like it to remain as a curved line even after saving the file. However everytime after saving, and opening the file again, the curve breaks into many line segments, which is not what I want! I want the curved line that I draw to remain as a curved line even after saving and opening. How do I do that? I am using autocad2010.
I use the ARC command to draw a couple of lines, they look okay here. But after I saved it, and re-open it again, what previously appeared as curved lines changed in their appearance to polyline segments.

Is it possible to draw a curved line, preferably with arrows at one or both ends? Lines drawn with the freeform brush are too jaggedy; I'm looking for something with intermediate handles that will make smooth curved leaders for text annotation of features in photos.
I've figured out how to make paths...what I'm trying to do is make a line that follows a path - without having the program "fill in" the path-defined region.

I am having a heck of a time trying to make a curved line. I have Photoshop version 8.0
Can this only be done using the Pen?
Can I use the 'line' tool and curve that line somehow?
The graphic I am trying to make is the bottom of a boat anchor.

I have a photograph of a female model and I need to draw lines onto the photograph to show where the waist and chest measurements would be. I guess I need a solid eliptical line which passes in front of the model and then a dotted line which shows where the ellipse would pass behind her.

I can't put my nested window family in a curved wall. Where the problem could be situated? It has to be a normal straight window so I use my nested window families from other projects. I compared my NWF(nested window family) with the ones autodesk provides with revit but I don't find the difference. The NWF from autodesk work in a curved wall.

I am trying to create a staircase balustrade in glass but which needs to follow the curved edge of the stair. The stair has 3 straight flights with two sections of curved winders.
I've tried using a glass balustrade family but this doesn't seem to work as the size of the panels prevent it following the curve. A similar problem exists at the edge of the floor where the balustrade needs to follow the curved edge of the floor. The handrail element of the balustrade works fine.

I have a bench which I have drawn in CAD, and I want to calculate the area.
The bench is a sort of "S" shape.
In the past I have only calculated the areas of straight objects and so have been able to pick points, but i'm not sure how to go about it when the object includes a curve.
