Hi everyone! In Revit can tag all element in view one time, but Span Direction seem like can not. Revit API can be save time for action? I can use Family.Instance to place Symbol but not the same native In Revit ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/3/f/3f648a29ec8ad2540b6df01d701b2519b9cbd7cc.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/b/0/b05c365585d120d46734af99e2ddc753dc7dc11e.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/f/4/f4b0070f69a06dbc9c5ef59d91be7e7f9b9922a8.png) ---

Thank you but I dont know your image! two-way had creat but when I send file to you, I want data small so I Purge family. But maybe you misunderstand my question, I want place all Span Direction for all element Floors in view Dynamo can place it but result not the same menthod in Revit (in Revit when change Span Direction is Symbol had placed will auto change but Symbol made by Dynamo flow your menthod can’t) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/2/5/25f1da37ef84b44ec21a309a3667dd61a5e3114c.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/6/0/6062d9011a15fe5cd955cd34e7337369d08611cb.png)
