Appreciate you sharing the code here as well @Alberto_Tono . Even more so considering it was deleted from the Github issues page… :roll_eyes:

Sad :frowning: Hope he will implement, at least.

[image] Alberto_Tono: At the moment I have a solution with Python. Looks useful. Please post the working DYN showing IN[0] .

[image] Be sure to place in a .dyf node and set the lacing. Thanks a lot True for the request. The node took inspiration from several links and materials. https://thebuildingcoder.typepad.com/files/sd124625_visual_appearance_of_materials_api_boris_shafiro_handout.pdf

Hello, I’ve created the script as mentioned in @Alberto_Tono ’s message. However, I’m being returned only nulls, even for the materials that I know have a texture image at a path. [image] What might be going wrong?

Hi Alberto, what should I set the lacing to?

Hello Randy, did you end up figuring this out?

Hi, You can also use the Material Find Texture Path node. [image] Changing material texture file path with issues Revit Hi @sdzbrian , Use the Find Texture Path and the String.Replace nodes. [Change Texture Path] Change Texture Path.dyn (11.6 KB)

Thanks, that helps. Does it just ignore materials without texture paths? [image]

Yes, if there is no texture, there is no result. Maybe I should add a null instead.
