Hi everyone!

I would like to change all plug sockets to double plugs, if the parameter xy contains “WM” as text.  
Is that possible?

Thanks in advance

Hi @CEETHELPDESK

Just use OOTB node “Element.SetParameter” node with Type as parameter. Here is an example [Change Text Note Type](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/change-text-note-type/3767/3?u=kulkul)
