hi I’m new to dynamo and this maybe a very basic question. i wrote my first script to copy parameter value from a Type parameter to another instance parameter in the same family. It works fine to copy from instance to instance parameter but not from typeaw some people us to instance i looked up i se a node from Rhythm package call "SetParameterByName(TypeOrInstance) " to replace my old node “Element.setParameterByName” will fix i guess. so install the package but still cant find the node. just wonder is it because its an older version of the package ? if so how can i reinstall the new version? and i also anyone know if there is other way to fix my script ? thank you.
sorry i dont know how t
Can you upload an image export of your graph and link us to an example workflow? It’s really hard to know where the breakdown is from a description otherwise.
Welcome to the forum.
When you run what are the values your getting on watch nodes?
So this is the first time i run the script and it work well when i copied value from " Fire rating" which is a type parameter to "Fire rating ( Instance) " which is an instance share parameter.
Then here’s the problem come when i tried to copy value from a " Glass Type" which is a type parameter ( shared parameter) to another share parameter ( instance) “door style” . it did copy the value correctly but this time come with warnings i just wonder it will cause any problem later on?
note that " Fire rating" maybe a family default parameter that i cant edit. so i guess there are something to do with it ?
thanks ahead for your reply
This node is still in the latest version of rhythm.
Thank you this works so well and i learn some new things . this is very helpful. Thanks a lot
