Hi @mrahmaniasl 👋 , hope you don't mind I've left a few notes below, mostly concerning keeping the wording accessible.

A few spelling/grammar issues fixed below :

| * The computer enables the designer to find a set of optimal solutions that satisfy multiple competing goals. |
Though I would suggest this re-wording makes it less clear where those multiple goals come from.

explore design space
- I would suggest this is too technical a term and not all readers would be familiar with what it means (as it's an intro, it's not been introduced yet)
- it might also be redundant since
enables the designer to find optimal solutionsbelow is essentially the same thing. Perhaps this line could only refer to thegenerationaspect ?

- Mixed terminology makes things a bit less clear I think :
design scenariosvsdesign optionsused to refer to same thing - This sentence also seem to say the same thing as the one above
designer evaluatesmight be mis-leading since theevaluatewording is used throughout in a different context.Designer comparesshould be enough, maybe it can simply be removed ?

The designer evaluates and compares multiple design scenarios to find a set of design options that fits THE design goals. .....but also I agree with Radu's comments. Could we just leave it out?

For slider nodes set values for Min, Max..... (take out "proper")

Hi @radumg Thanks for reviewing. Just to let you know, I am going to remove the graphs that are already shipped with GD from the release here to maintain them only at one place. |
AGD-1489: Fixes for main PR branch
…lding-mass-generator.md Co-authored-by: Radu Gidei <radumg@users.noreply.github.com>
👍 The only side-effects I can think of are :
Are these (in particular last point) an issue @lillismith ? |
Purpose
The goal of this PR is to update samples and other parts of the Primer with the required changes for the most recent Generative Design in Revit Release.
Changes:
1- Some issues in the document is addressed such as wrong screenshots or descriptions
2- Sample 01-01_Highest-point-of-a surface is updated
3- Sample01-02_Minimum-volume-and-maximum-surface is removed as it is duplicate of 3 box sample that is shipped with GD
4- Sample 02-01-Building-Generator is updated and study type is created.
5- Sample 02-02 Building positioning is updated.
6- Sample 02-03 Office-Layout is updated
7- Sample 02-04 Grid object is removed
8- Sample 02-05 Entourage placement is removed
TODO: Update files to be downloaded with all samples and update the release page
FYI TBD
