I’m trying to get the 2 points from the Room Calculation Points for my Doors, most Nodes that do something with this are returning the Room at that point, I would like the Point itself. I’ve found the GetSpatialElementFromToCalculationPoint() method to query the Door element for those, the result i…

Why not use a bit of standard string parsing and number conversion with OOTB Dynamo nodes and then create the point?

@Bjorn_Keulemans1 , you want to convert Revit type to Dynamo type so, you need to import “GeometryConversion” clr.AddReference(‘RevitNodes’) import Revit clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.GeometryConversion) add these references and it should be fine.

That was my backup idea, I’ve struggled with the Revit/Python ownership of elements before and wanted to see if I could get a more solid grasp on the concept, while making this Node and solving a question that came across my desk.

I’ve tried that a little after making the first post here, and unfortunately it didn’t seem to work. I’ve left it here for today, might pick it up later this weekend. I’ve got my points, but not as Dynamo elements, and there’s a logic flaw somewhere, because I’m making 6 points from 2 sets of 2 XY…

@Bjorn_Keulemans1 , of course, you need ToPoint method for type conversion. According to your code, it should be like this; z.append(p.ToPoint()) p is your XYZ point (Revit Type) p.ToPoint() (Dynamo Type which is what you want)

Thanks a lot, I’m getting Point in Dynamo indeed. Job for this weekend is now to look at my looping and solve the 4 becomes 6 issue. Thanks. [v3]
