An updated version of my Dynamo nodes package (rev.2017.5.19) is available at Dynamopackages.com. It's now equipped with Railing.CountBalustersĀ custom node, which is based on the "Railing.BalusterCount" node from Rhythm package. I had to rebuild the original node to get rid of the 'false positives' in resulting…
This little Dynamo graph may become handy If you use individual Revit worksets for each of the linked Revit files. While operating with linked files via worksets becomes super comfortable (you can even unload links before opening your Revit model), it becomes a pain to manually create separate worksets for each model.
This is where Dynamo will come in handy:
As you can see, the logic behing this graph is simple:
Scan your current document for linked Revit files, and retrieve their names. This is done using Archi-lab.net package by Konrad K Sobon, so you'll need to install it (if you haven't already done this) before running the script;
Then we cut off all the unnecessary symbols from the link names using the node "String.Split" and add our desired prefix via "String.Insert";
The last one node "Workset.ByName" is also listed in Archi-lab package and basically does the rest - creates worksets by the input list of names. Although I don't check if some of the worksets already exist, it won't give you errors or warnings.
To start with, I'd like to say that I'm not willing to build an all-in-one dynamo package, collecting everyone's custom nodes. My intention is totally different: I'd like to share my ideas that cover some white spots in Revit and Dynamo. I mean that if…
Zhukoven.com is a custom Dynamo package for the Revit users. It helps automate repeatable tasks, overcome Revit and Dynamo limitations, and provides you with workarounds to increase productivity and save time. The package now has a new home at GitHub (https://github.com/zhukoven/DynamoZhukoven) Disclaimer: Although these…
