Is there a way to use dynamo to create schedules specific to different design options?

I have a schedule that we typically use for our designs but I’m being asked to provide that same schedule based on each design option…is this possible through dynamo?

Changing the design option of the view should work. Check to see what parameters the schedule has.

Why not just use the Schedule Properties to do it. Are there many options and schedules?

When design options are enabled, a visibility/graphics tab becomes available for the schedule. It’s accessible through the properties palette.

Unless you change it there, schedules default to Primary Option.

FYI: this may not be possible per this post:

But if you have a view template…

You can’t set the template’s value for the V/G Overrides Design Options, but you can set a view template to have the desired value for each design option manually, and then use Dynamo to apply the view template (and then remove it afterwards if desired - the design option override should stick).
