Hello Dynos,
How can i get the origin of a family as point? I mean where the refplanes cross.
import clr
clr.AddReference('RevitAPI')
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
clr.AddReference('RevitNodes')
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion)
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
element = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
OUT = element.Origin.ToPoint()
This script does not run! because there is no Origin to snoop out.

If you mean of an instance in a project, that property is called it’s location.
If you are in a Family Document, you need to query the Refplanes for the Define Origin property.
Go and take a look in Clockwork Location Node, you can study the python code in there. He build exactly this node.
Thank you i try to reconstruct Element.Location+
i am still struggeling, i want to simplify the node just to get this Point(origin)
# The inputs to this node will be stored as a list in the IN variables.
elem = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
OUT = elem.Location.Point.()
i got some previews but without progress

haha… …the blind chicken 
elem = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
x = elem.Location.Point.X
y = elem.Location.Point.Y
z = elem.Location.Point.Z
OUT = x,y,z
How could be some list-comprehantions?

Hello @Draxl_Andreas
try this, if you want point
import clr
clr.AddReference('RevitAPI')
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
clr.AddReference('RevitNodes')
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion)
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
element = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
loc = element.Location
if isinstance(loc, LocationPoint):
rvtPoint = loc.Point
protoPoint = rvtPt.ToPoint()
