Importing Text into Parameters

Hi

I am importing data from a .txt file and having trouble with the file encoding (®).

2015-03-31_12-07-08

 

 

 

 

 

 

The code to drive is is as follows:

2015-03-31_12-14-26

 

 

 

The content is encoded properly is I manually copy/clip the content into the parameter field.

 

Thanks

You are probably using Dynamo 0.7.something - there were some encoding issues that later got fixed at some point. Try the 0.8 release candidate and see if the problem persists.

Hi Andreas

Issue happens using 0.8 candidate (0.8.0.856) running on Revit 2015. [20150303_0715(x64)].

It does not seem to read the .txt files as ASCII. in the same way as Notepad++ does. Copy/clip from Notepad++ works fine but the process becomes very manual.

Cheers

In that case, please post a bug on GitHub:

Done

Hi all.

I have a similar issue:

When writting to a text file it is always encoded as UTF-8, and I need it to be ASCII.

I can manually open the file and “save as” using another encoding format, such as ASCII, so my problem is gone, but it could be great if I can choose in within Dynamo or Design Script the way I want to encode the text file.

Help would be much appreciated.
