Change System Type For Selected Objects Only

Revit

Hello, all.

I am working on a dynamo script and I have it running up to the point of selecting an object and getting the system type changed. …however, what I am wanting is to get it to change the system type of only what is selected. What it is doing is changing the system type of all the pipes of the type if they are connected. Normal behavior.

I will select the objects I want to change to System 1 (2 elbows and 2 pipes)…

Run the script and you can see that the selected pipes have changed as desired but it also changed the rest of the yellow pipe too.

What I wanted was this.

Is such a thing possible with dynamo without disconnecting the system and using system divide first?

Attached is the DYN routine as I have it.

Thanks!

Hi,

Is it possible when you try the do it in Revit?
When it is not possible in Revit, it is not possible in the api, so i think it is not possible

Unfortunately, no, it isn’t.

That’s sort of what I figured with this being a script type. Worth asking though! Thanks!
