How do one place symbols with dynamo

Hi Kobus,
Welcome to the forum :wave:
When you have the time please read this post How to get help on the Dynamo forums
Symbols are typically 2D family types so you will need to use the FamilyInstance.ByPointInView node from the Clockwork package

I installed Clockwork and used Familyinstamce.ByPointinView, When I run nothing happened. I add the Dynamo file here for investigation.

Hi @User5CYX5R-Kobus which dynamo/revit version are you in ?

I have installed dynamoIronPython2.7 and it is still not working. When I re-opened the dynamo file it gave me a popup. " This graph contains nodes that reference an outdated Python engine.

could you show an image of your graph with all nodes expanded, that popup is just a information so just say ok

With Revit 2024 Dynamo was installed. Clockwork was the first package I was installing. How can I see what was installed? Thanks for helping.

go to Dynamo - preference in the ribbon under package you will see whitch package you have installed, but doesnt sound as package conflict if you just installed 2024 and only installed clockwork and iron python…and you are sure clockwork is latest i guess its 2.6

DynamoIronPython 2.5 was not available but I installed 2.7

It is not working. I noticed that the familyinstace return Null.

yeah it has to be dynamoironpython 2.7 but version 2.5…in package manager browse to your dynamoironpython 2.7 but instead say install, click on view details and then you will see version 2.5 and just install that version
