Using Dynamo to toggle VG on and off

chriskD6WP2 — Wed, 24 Feb 2021 18:14:26 GMT

I'm not familiar with Dynamo but can't you use it to program a "switch" to turn point clouds on/off in different views? I've asked this question before but all I got was it might be possible. Well, if it is, can anyone direct me to some reference material on how I would do this with Dynamo?

Basically, these are the steps I currently take to turn off/on a point cloud.

View tab, Visibility/Graphics, Point Clouds, Check show/hide point clouds in view, OK

Anyone?

Nevermind, I got it. That's what I was looking for, thanks!

This will only switch one way then you would have to change the "True/False" to the opposite in order to make it change back so it truly is not a "toggle". I have been trying for a while now to make a true toggle that a user would not have to modify in order to toggle a line type on and off but have yet to find a true "toggle" to change the "True/False" so that when the script runs again it will change the line type visibility back.
