What it does
Getting a Revit model into Rhino usually means an export, an import, and a pile of unlabeled geometry on one layer. Revit to Rhino Interop runs on Rhino.Inside.Revit and transfers Revit elements into Rhino, baking them onto organised layers by Revit category, by level, or by a parameter value with your own layer names. Choose a selection mode (all elements, selected categories, or a manual pick), pick a layering scheme, and run it from inside a live Revit session. A delete-elements-on-layer helper clears a layer before a clean re-run. You get organised Rhino geometry instead of one messy dump, though it does not yet write Revit parameter values onto the Rhino object attributes; that part is planned, not shipped.
What is included
- Three selection modes: all elements, selected categories, or manual
- Layering by Revit category, by level, or by parameter value
- User-named layers from a chosen parameter
- Bakes Revit geometry to organised Rhino layers
- Delete-elements-on-layer helper for clean re-runs
- Testing notes covering the selection and layering combinations

Questions about this product
How does it connect to Revit?
It runs through Rhino.Inside.Revit, so Rhino and Grasshopper open inside a running Revit session and read the live model.
Does it copy parameter values onto the Rhino objects?
Not in this version. Writing Revit parameters onto Rhino object attributes is planned and not yet included.
