Packages

Hi all, thanks for your inputs!

I was trying to create multiple sheets using excel file, and also place certain views on these sheets.

The first image is a screen shot of the excel file. Using this script, Revit did created all the sheets, but the views are not placed.

I guess the issue is the “view” input is not right.

Any idea to solve this problem?

Thanks, Kui

You can make multi sheet, it’s ok with dynamo. But when place view on sheet, the standard node of dynamo not good. it’ just add view type : PLAN VIEW, DRAFTING VIEW, LEGEND… EXCEPT STRUCTURAL and SCHEDULE type view.

If you want to continue place view on sheet, i can share u that node.

when i see your node, i feel you don’t understand about input of Views of node Sheet.ByNameNumberTitleBlock, you must give it element’s id from your views, the excel’s input just a string data, so that node can not understand and will say it’s wrong type data.
