As requested by @Kulkul , I’m starting a new post with this issue, hoping this will help someone else in the community. What I’m trying to achieve is to automaticlly rename AREAS based on room names. I’m currently working in a huge project, and I need this information for some safety plans. Retyping…

Area Name to Room Name Rev.dyn (7.0 KB) Try this file.

There is a node in Rhythm called Element.AreaLocation, that should do the trick. [image]

Hi all! Thanks for replying. @Kulkul , your file is renaming my Rooms with the Area data. I need to do the opposite. I’ve tried to invert the output but I have absolutely no knowledge at all in Python. @john_pierson I’ve tried it, looked pretty great and simple, but I get this warning: [image] T…

hmm. on the output of area location are any of the values null?

When I run the script, it renames every single Area but not with the room name that it should, for ex…

@john_pierson that’s right. Also, as a consequence of the “Elements Area Location” returning null values, the “ Element.Name ” gives me this weird “Warning: Internal error, please report: Dereferencing a non-pointer. (3f47aacd)” Thank you all
