Latest design option in revit doesn't match design option chosen my plugin

A particular Revit model has a variety of design options for the geometry. The Revit 3D viewer shows one pre-chosen design option as the default. In this case that default design option included a slanted plane for the roof of a Gymnasium.

However, when I export the geometry through the plugin, I receive a different geometry for the gymnasium by default.

We were able to work around this problem by deleting all the unused design options. The plugin could then only choose the correct design option.

I wanted to share this lack of feature to choose the design option since choosing a design option is different from choosing a phase in the first menu of the plugin.

Wondering if this is a lack of feature or if I don’t know how to choose a different design option to export. Either way, i’d be cool to have the design option export that is also pre-chosen in the revit model as the correct design option.

correct design option displays as default in revit

different design option is used by the plugin

Hi @alterleon,

Thank you so much for taking the time and documenting this. As usual it is comprehensive and easy to follow.

This is indeed a bug for loading the roofs from all the design options. In all the other cases, we only load the information from the primary design option.

I have already logged this issue for @ksobon, and it will hopefully be fixed soon.

This is now fixed in Revit v2.264.0. As expected, Pollination only loads the primary option.
