Hello everyone,
For Walls and Wall sweeps I was listing the value’s of the Type Parameter of these elements. And with get parameter value by name it gives back the value I want for Walls, but for Wall sweeps it gives back ElementType. And that’s not the value I want 
What am I doing wrong?
Tnx very much, Berend.
You could get the value you need with an Element.Name node
Tnx,
I used the Element.Name+ node from the Clockwork package.
This one seems to do the right thing for all types.
For anyone interested in this issue with Element Name written with a point, here is a workaround:
Definitely, but as you can see, people are actually clicking on it and we don’t know yet why it happens…
Sorry for the late reaction, but had a long weekend 
Hope the picture below shows the problem I’ve had with the element .name and what element.name+ fixed.
Hello @erfajo,
I don’t know if what I’m doing is a nogo, because if I’m doing it like you explaned, I don’t get what I think I should 
If I’m reading your red lines correctly, I should connect the list directly to Element.name. So I did, and it looks like it’s working for the 3 categories in the previous example. But if add some more categories I get some that don’t work. In this case Stair (see red dot)
The more I experiment, the stranger I find that with getparametervaluebyName I get outcomes like ElementType and StairsType. In my opion that is not the value of the parameter, but some sort of description. I think it should give the values at the blue arrows.
Well the methode I use seems to work for me at the moment. If this changes I will add to this post,
Have a nice day,
Berend.
