Hi is there a way to get all the views an element is visible in, in Dynamo? I want to try placing revision clouds automatically for a list of elements, but the RevisionCloud.ByCurve node for placing revision clouds requires view as an input is there a way to get all the views an element is visible in automatically and place rev clouds at all the locations?

hey, I am trying to do similar thing. Above mentioned method works only if its a small model.

I have hundreds of sheets. When I run the graph it took almost more than an hour and I had to cancel it. Is there a way to narrow down search / decrease processing ?

I tried to narrow down by view types.

Also , the problem I notiiced was that the Element.IsVisibleInView Node opens and generate each sheet, ( I could noticed in status bar ) , Maybe if I can direct that it does not open and read each sheet would reduce the time,

Any help would be appreciated.

I posted the following:

Find views and sheets that show a specific element

Thanks to all of the responses and ideas. I was trying to find all floor plan views NOT on sheets that had instances of a specific detail line type. I would imagine this could be extended to look for other things in other views. Find All Views Not on Sheets Containing Instance of a Specific Line Style.dyn (30.5 KB)

There’s a section in there for finding all floor plan views not on a sheet. That may be a starting point to get the views filtered down.
