Hello to everybody!!

any chance to change the width of a wall? I have tried by Element.SetParameter but Dynamo is telling me that this parameter is only to read, and I am not be able to change it…

I have tried with FamilyType.CompoundStructureLayers from Clockwork Packages too but also doesn´t works… Any idea???

you either want to:

  • change the type of a particular wall, or
  • change the width of a particular wall type

It looks like your graph is trying to do both- which do you want ?
The wall width is a type parameter, not an instance

Hi Andrew,

thank you very much for your response.
My graph take all the lines drawed in Revit and calculate the distances. Later I am creating all the walls that I need with different names and in the next step, I want to take the distances that I have calculated and put in those new walls.

I don´t know if it is possible.
Best regards

Not sure- I still don’t understand what you want to do…

But you probably want to create wall types (system family types) in which case the Genius Loci package has some useful nodes
