How Get Units from parameter of element ?
it is wrong but for example:
IN[0] LIST if some element (elements)
list_display_type=UnwrapElement(IN[0]) Parameter from name xxx DisplayUnitType()
OUT=list_display_type >> DUT_CUBIC_METERS
Thanks!)
Can you show how do it in python ?
Sorry about that, but I am a bit of a python hack. Might have to let someone else answer that one.

its ok) thanks for you answer 
will see the another answers …
yes, ill see that,
its looks like:
DisplayUnitType { get; }
get - i m think it is parameter
The display unit type of the parameter
but how get the parameter from element ? (use the element and name of parameter) ?
That’s the most straight forward way. You can use Element.Parameter to get the element’s available parameters then filter by name.
how do it in python ?)
What are you wanting your workflow to be? Can you show your work so far?
i want to get units from any parameters of elements and convert them from project units
Hi,
MEPover package has a node called GetParameterAsProjectUnits which you can edit to see the Python code.

Is there a reason it has to be in Python? Clockwork and MEPover both have nodes that deal with project and internal units.

i am create convert-block as def function from every unit , but i m want to do it automatically - convert all units of all parameters from selected elements in projectunits in one way
So are you looking to get all parameters from an element or only specific parameters?
all parameters, thats may be : string, float, flow e.t.c …
for string and float DisplayUnitType is INVALID, for anotner units it is exist…
and for all units of parameters from selected elements i want to convert to project units…
This will give you the parameter object, parameter name, and unit type for all parameters of a given element. That might get you started.
dataEnteringNode = IN
element = IN[0]
names = []
units = []
params = element.Parameters
for param in params:
names.append(param.Name)
units.append(param.UnitType)
OUT = params,names,units
