Hi all I have a video, I want to know how they do to create that dyn file. Can you help me? Links video attached below: This is a video link of the author. I have not contacted the author, if you can help me then that is great > **[Tunnel Modeling for BIM—Tools for Success: AutoCAD Civil 3D, Revit, and...](http://au.autodesk.com/au-online/classes-on-demand/class-catalog/classes/year-2016/autocad-civil-3d/tr22133#chapter=0)** > > In this class, we will use the Grand Paris Express project linking the suburbs of Paris by metro to showcase the workflows that enable project success. We will demonstrate solutions for the unique requirements of Building Information Modeling... thanks you ---

See here: > [@Automated Wall Section](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/automated-wall-section/14281): > > Hi all, Did something in my downtime while waiting for a train which I thought I’d share. It takes a selected wall element (or any other curve based family really), and inputs for the percent of the length where you want to cut the element; an offset from the element, the depth of view cut, add if you want it flipped not and gives you a section which is perpendicular to the element, including the “outlines” of the element as detail lines to allow for snapping. Great for those curv… That workflow could be modified to create a section view and line elements from other geometries. ---

You need to install the custom packages noted above the respective nodes. Bakery. Clockwork. Steam Nodes. Get them via package manager. ---

Also bakery may have changed the name of the create section view node. Double check to find that one.
