Jeremy Tammik,

I just found a workaround for creating walls with the location line set to "Finish Face" (for exemple) on creation. I just first create a wall two times thicker, change the location line position, and finaly change my wall type to its final thickness. I explain it more accuratly here : http://bim42.com/2014/02/09/modellingskirtingboards/

Simon Moreau

Dear Simon,

Thank you very much for sharing your brilliant idea.

The best solutions are always the simplest, and this is an absolutely perfect example of that.

Thank you also for sharing your Revit room finishing and skirting board modelling application for free on the Autodesk Exchange:

I am looking forward to seeing the code on GitHub.

Congratulations on all of these good steps!

Cheers, Jeremy.

Dear Simon,

I like your solution so much that I promoted it to a proper blog post of its own:

Thank you again!

Cheers, Jeremy.

Dear Simon,

I'm a beginner in creating tools for revit, and the tool you created is almost similar to the one I wanted to create. I already tried the solution on the Autodesk exchange and it is great. I'm really looking forward to see your code!

Thanks!

One more thing,

I hope my excitement doesn't make me sound impatient, but can you give an indication of when we can expect your code on Github? And can you tell us your username or repository name to make sure we don't miss it?

Best,

Jesse Mom
