Has anyone created a script that can place hangers on a pipe? I want to make the script so that it will place a hanger every 5’ or so. I just wanted to check to see if anyone has already made something like this. Or if anyone has any ideas of where to start.

I started to mess around with the idea and im getting no where. This is what i have.

> Hello everyone again! I am trying to use the “FamilyInstanceByPointinTrasaction” node to allow me to place several hanger instances along a pipe, reading rotation, elevation and other parameters and writing onto the new instances. Now the “FamilyInstanceByPointinTrasaction” works for one instance per run? Anyone with python skills, could you consult on what can I modify in the script to make it work for multiple instances? Thanks Regards, JT
