First of all can I say thank you to @viktor_kuzev for your help and advice on showing me the [Archi-lab](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/revit-2022-dynamo-2-10-package-not-showing-up-and-icons-missing/62933/7?) Grimshaw FloorPlan.ByRoom node its really good. I have not used Dynamo for around a year so can not really remember what I am doing and as I am a landscape architect rooms are new to me. I was not sure what the offset was but I am guessing it was the offset for the view of the room. Anyway I have posted how far I have got and am still getting lots of errors.

I asked for a example of inputs not for it to be done for me. I was not at my computer at the time that I posted so could not upload my progress.
