Hello,
If I click on duct fitting f.e. tee, elbow etc. I can see every connector diameter.
Is it possible to give name for this connectors and show them after mark?
F.e. If i click on tee I want know which connecor is inlet, outlet and branch.
Regards

@AeM_86 ,

for x.Parameters you need elements (familyInstances) as input.

Maybe by analyzing the flow direction with Direction property
