greetings DynamoBIM forum:
Does anyone know how to get Archi-lab node ‘Export Image by View’ to work (Revit 2024/Dynamo 2.19) Or any similar alternatives?
The main node seems to work, but not the helper nodes ‘Zoom fit type’ etc
This client system is quite locked down, but usually throws an error if something like a specific DLL is blocked
thanks
Andrew
Which version of Archi-Lab do you have installed? This catches alot of stuff up as they’re Revit release specific (see the link).
thanks @jacob.small
I’ll have a closer look tomorrow- but comes up as the latest version, circa 2024 from memory
The Archi-Lab version should end with 24 if you’re in a Revit 2024 release. Currently the ‘latest’ such build is 2024.217.1024. THis link might provide a direct download: https://www.dynamopackages.com/download/53e99ce50e5572016a00018a/2024.217.1024
The latest version will not work in Revit 2024, do properly read the information in Jacobs link as the last digits relate to the revit version and catches lots of people out.
The version you need for revit 2024 is this one
thanks @Brendan_Cassidy
Yes, I’m one of them
It works ok- maybe a bit counterintuitive for the _filepath input to take a file rather than a folder path.
So you have to point it at an existing image, and then the view name gets appended to that filename.
The existing image obviously doesn’t come into play (I tried feeding in paths to non-existent files, or a directory without success)
