I am very new to Dynamo still. I am looking into ways to write a script that will place devices on the walls. I did find this youtube video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrrkkK1kAt0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrrkkK1kAt0) that I thought was really useful but unfortunately part of the script that is being explained is cut off in the video. Would anyone know how this is made?
