I am struggling to add a filter for selected line styles in active view only, the graph collects all selected line type in the project, is there a way to add a current view or select a view. Greatly appreciate your help:
Assuming you mean Detail Lines, you can get the OwnerViewId and match it with the active view. There are also custom packages with nodes for getting elements in a view or checking visibility based on view.

Not just Detail Lines, it could be Model line too. I can change the script to filter elements in active view, but then i can get name of those specific lines. I hit a wall when it comes filtering them out.
Since model lines are not view specific, you would have to use a method that checks based on visibility. This can still be a little tricky as elements can be “hidden” in a view in ways that they’re still technically “visible”. Getting them based on view like the node @christian.stan suggested is still your best bet.

This works, thank you, however, now it calculates the totals of all lines in selected view. Getting the ids to match seems to fail:

You are asking for Element.Id on a text output (plug into an element)

This works @christian.stan Thanks, just a quick question though, is there a way to group the same types together instead of showing individual results:

the main thing is to try and understand (the connection of incoming and outgoing at each node, what do I have, what do I want to send, how to transform it, these are the questions that I ask myself posed at each stage),
remain humble,
everything has been through the beginning except the designers (there must be many exceptions)
