Extract elements from list, Dynamo

[krzysiektoja]

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how to extract from this list only the items that are of family type with the name “M_Dimension Lumber”?

Thanks in advance

@krzysiektoja ,

do it with a codeblock

//via bool
x == "M_Dimension Lumber" ? true : false

i think in your case you have to convert to string f.e. like

//ToString
x+"";

@Draxl_Andreas

x == "M_Dimension Lumber" ? true : false

hmm could you please take a look at this? I’m not sure why it’s not working.!

@krzysiektoja ,

you have to “feed” the codeblock! x

assuming all data is text (global comparison not partial)

ok, but with it still not working

edit: 3 possible ways

x+""==x[2]+""?true:false;

you can get the type name then filter by string
