Revit add-in inspired by DTools for converting DWG geometry to detail lines and creating structural columns from lines.
- DWG-to-detail-line conversion and geometry processing.
- Column creation from lines, batch creation, circular columns and grids.
- Family diagnostics, standard family loading and settings.
The project targets Revit 2026, .NET 8 and Windows x64. Building requires the
Revit 2026 API assemblies. Both project files currently reference a local
E:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2026 installation; adjust those paths for your
machine before building.
git clone https://github.com/dark13b/LookLikeRevitDtool.git
cd LookLikeRevitDtool
dotnet build RevitDtools.csproj --configuration Release
dotnet test RevitDtools.Tests/RevitDtools.Tests.csproj --configuration ReleaseThe latest local baseline build failed because the configured API assemblies were unavailable. Runtime behavior and the full test suite remain unverified. See the assessment and repair plan.
The .addin manifest currently contains a developer-specific DLL path. Set it
to the built assembly location before installing it under
%APPDATA%\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2026. Include runtime dependencies alongside
the assembly. The existing MSI configuration needs repair before distribution.
Historical v1.1.0 packages are no longer stored in the source tree. They remain recoverable from Git history; see the cleanup log.
