Dynamo Interoperability with Robot Structural Analysis [RobotOM]

[Anonymous]

Hello,

First of all sorry but my bad English but I will try my best to be explanatory.

I've been working around Dynamo for a while now and I want to transfer some structural elements information (geometry and properties) from Revit to Robot Structural Analysis.

As I import the RobotOM library from the Python Script within Dynamo I find very hard to program because there are no references to RobotOM functions. So the solution found was to use Visual Studio in a Python Environment. 

The issue comes in the Visual Studio. After importing the RobotOM library sucessfully - as initially the references are shown - the references disappear and informs an issue with IntelliSense. No further programming can be done as there is no connection to the library. Did anyone had a similar issue/knows a proper solution or is the only option here to program in C#?

Thanks in advance,

José Ferreira.

Hello Hashim,

Thank you for answering so fast. Yes I am talking about programming with Dynamo. I have seen the linked video but the packages that are in Dynamo about Robot Structural Analysis are very limited to what my intentions are. I know it's possible to connect directly Dynamo to Robot Structural Analysis but my issue is on RobotAPI Python programming. 

The RobotOM library imported in Visual Studio IronPython Environment doesn't seem to work that well. Awhile after importing the RobotOM the references disappear. Probably due to IntelliSense?

Is there any solution to this or the only way to go is programming in C#?
