Hello, i want to create a custom node. When try setting the name i want for the node. This message pops up.

Im not using any special characters. I can name the node “Test” or other names. But i want the name to be descriptive of its purpose. I will find a different name for this one, but why is my chosen name a problem here?  
Im in dynamo version 2.5.  
I know there are other nodes in packages that give me the same result. This is partly for my own learing experience.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @HansJ,

The spaces in custom nodes are no longer supported.  
_GetViews_ should be ok !

Yes, i see now that all other custom nodes don’t have space in their names…  
It seems like a silly question now.  
The name GetViews works like a charm! Thank you.
