Changing Model In Place Family Category Using Dynamo

Revit

Hello Everyone can we Change Model In Place Families Category Using Dynamo ??/

No. There is no way to programmatically modify an in-place model as access to in-place model commands is not exposed in the Revit API so therefore Dynamo also has no access. The best you could do is programmatically swap the in-place family instance with a loadable family with matching geometry. Such a tool would be a big lift to create though.

I have written this in Python as well; it’s not an easy task for complex models if you want to maintain editable geometry, materials, parameters and the like. Easier if you just want to move geometry.
