I am new using Dynamo, thus would be greate to get some help
I have created some type parameters for one family type as “text”. My intention is to fill out the parameter values with text from a Excel data sheet for each parameter several times. However, I´ve been strugling how exactly set them as a text, since the node " Parameter.SetValue " is not for “string”.
Is there any hint what should I try ?
Here is what I`ve tried to do so far>
Select the family type. Watch all the element parameters, get their values, filter the values to be filled in, create a list to link with the corresponding text in Excel.
Thank you for your reply. But “string from object” does not really solve this problem. I´m looking for some node that could be read directly as a string, in order to fill a text in the parameter.
and ensure that the family type has some value because in the image you shown
it contains a parameter value Keynote when i tried it i got a value which i entered
If I set them as instance parameter instead of type parameter, it is possible to use the codeblock to write the string.
But I would like to get the text from Excel not type them. So the codeblock also doesn´t seem very useful in this case. Am I wrong?
