Dear @RMohareb , something went wrong when i tried to use the script. There might be a very simple solution to this, but as I am not familiar in Python I am stuck. I would be grateful if you could modify the code based on this. Below is the attached warning message. [02] [03] [01]

Hi @m.nagykovacs Can you send the your *.pts file to check I think the problem n the pts file format

Hi @RMohareb , I can’t attach .pts format file here. How could I share the file with you?

Can you import pts file to recap the re expot it again to pts file and test. I think the problem in the pts file. Also you need to down size the pts file. You can use recap for down size.

I re-exported the file as you said and it looks like solved the problem, but there is still some issue. [2023-01-30_7-33-10]

@Marci Are you run the script in tne adaptive family?

I ran it in door family template.

It work only in adaptive family template

Ohh, I got it. Thanks for the help.

I wrote this app as a workaround PTS Import | AutoCAD | Autodesk App Store to get PTS into the Family editor. So is there still no other way except going though DWG/DXF to get points into a regular Family (not adaptive Family) for tracing? [image]
