Hi there, I am trying to create a script that will take an input Polyline which represents a linked floor’s boundaries as an input. Using these curves the script then opens and creates a new generic family document and creates a sweep (using a temporary profile atm) following this complete boundar…

no idea whats wrong but have you tryed using a seperate python node to save the file my think is that it somehow doesnt close sweep settings and you can not save. would be a bug in that case, just spewing out what i can think of and i am probably completly off though

Interestingly, if I freeze the saving portion of the script and try to close the FamilyDocument after creating the …
