DYNAMO BASIC HELP PLEASE

[CLMSJ]

Hi,

I have created a dynamo script that gives x and y coordinates to piles in my revit file. These values then appear in the schedule as shown in the screenshot. How do i convert it to show as metres and to only 3 decimal places?

Someone else told me to use math nodes but i am new to dynamo and not sure how to use them. Any help would be much appreciated or a point in the right direction on how to use basic math nodes.

Hi again, i finally got some time to try out your script, however when i open it in dynamo there is nothing there?

At the top right corner of the dynamo sandbox, there are 2 icons to toggle between graph nodes and preview...try to switch to nodes view and use fit to screen

I am currently not anywhere close to a workstation but will double check when I'm back in the office

That doesnt seem to work. OK No problem, many thanks in advance

@CLMSJ 

I have just downloaded the previous graph and double checked, it works fine at my end. Here is a screenshot...download the genius loci package and add the node to the previous graph which you had

Perfect, thanks so much for all your help! great feedback/response!

ust a quick question, the blue dots that appear in revit, is there a way to make them disappear without having to open and close the revit file?

@CLMSJ 

They will disappear when you reopen the model...These are generated by the nodes as a preview...you can right click the nodes in the dynamo graph and uncheck preview

Please do not get me wrong but you need to work on putting new questions in new posts 🙂

Cheers
