Use dynamo to create screenshot

qixing_chenZEV3X — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 20:19:02 GMT

Greeting,

I am wondering if there is a way to use dynamo(preferred) or lisp to create screenshots based on the coordinates. For example a screenshot of (X,Y,X) as a center point and boundary is 10m from that.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Steven,
Well, I don't know about Dynamo or Lisp, but try this:
ZOOM >> Center >> Specify center point >> X,Y >> Enter magnification or height >> ~10.
