Data Shapes in Civil 3D

Hi all,

I’ m trying to use data-shapes nodes in civil 3D but they are not working - windows are not popping up to introduce the inputs.

Does anyone know if data-shapes is working correctly in civil 3D, if nodes below are placed correctly or any other way of asking the user for inputs in this case? Thanks,

Hi @josepobiols25 ,

Your setup with the nodes seems correct, but maybe that “20” input is wrong since it lies outside the range of the keys list, I think it expects the index of 20 (which is 3) and not the value.

Data-Shapes has a lot of dependencies from the Revit API, as per my own experiences, some nodes work and some don’t.

Hi @sovitek ,

is Orkestra a package for Dynamo? Can’t find it in the browser.

Hi @Daan ,

I tried changing the 20 for a 3, to match the index and not the value itself and is not working or giving any type of error
Maybe it is a problem of compatibility between the package and Civil 3D?

Hi @Mostafa_El_Ayoubi ,

are data-shape nodes working on civil 3D?

I could not manage to do that.

Pop open the custom node, open up the python node contained therein, and check for any reference to “Revit” as that would prevent execution.

I had the same problem in C3D 2022.2 (Dyn 2.12).
The problem might have something to do with Python’s version in Data-Shapes.

I tried runing the DropDown Data node with Python2 and CPython3:

Python2 = null:

CPython3:

As you can see, using CPython3 on the DropDown node returns something. However, it is not possible to just use CPython3 for the MultipleInputForm++ node without updating the code.
