Lines to Flex Ducts

This function converts Model lines into flex Ducts. This tool is helpful in cases where you have files (.dwg, dxf, other formats) where flex ducts are drawn as lines, and you want to convert them. Also, in Revit it’s quite difficult to draw Flex ducts according to a preferred path. With this tool, you don’t have those issues anymore, you can just draw your preferred path with model lines and convert them into Flex ducts afterward.

Workflow:

    If you have selected one or more Model lines, the tools use these lines to execute.

    If you haven’t selected one or more Model lines, you are able to select those elements when executing the tool.

   After executing the tool, all attached and crossed lines are converted into Placeholder Flex Ducts with minimal dimensions. The original lines are deleted (Tip: 1 Undo recovers the deleted lines and keeps the newly created Flex Ducts). 

Remarks: This tool creates new Placeholder flex ducts: make sure you have included the following Duct types according to the Witas template (see project settings)
