Using Revit 2021.1, Dynamo Core 2.6.1.8786, Dynamo Revit 2.6.1.8850, Monocle v.2020.10.1.0
When using the ‘Package usage doge’, “Send Package Usage to Clipboard” command, I don’t get the version numbers for the packages I’m using…
Anyone seen this before & do you know how to fix it…?
Many thanks for your time and help
Hi @DoubleG ,
I actually was about to make a similar post to this as well last week but I forgot about it.
I found out that this happens when your Dynamo Packages are stored somewhere else than the (standard) Appdata/Autodesk location, i.e. a central cloud location.
@john_pierson probably also want to hear about this.
I’ve actually noticed this as well and have tried to fix it in the most recent versions can you try the newest version and report back?
I also think I will begin looking at the ootb ways of getting versions. Back when I first made the tool there was no way to get versions so I had to make my own. 
Hi @Daan,
All my packages are saved in the …AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\2.6\packages folder which I think is the default location…
I’ll try what @john_pierson is suggesting, see if that works
Hi @john_pierson,
I’ve just installed the latest version of Monocle that will work with our version of Dynamo…
Same result I’m afraid…
You mentioned
Might sound like a silly question, but is that ootb way within dynamo…?
@john_pierson and @Daan,
Thanks for your help.
I’ve just fixed it…
Made sure the top path within the “Manage Node and Package Paths” is …\AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\2.6
In …\AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\2.6\ packages
There was a subfolder called packages where “monocle” was sitting, I removed that subfolder (make sure Revit and Dynamo are both closed)
Reinstall Monocle, restart Dynamo, now you should be able to get the version numbers
Hope this helps someone else
Very cool. Thanks for reporting back.
I ended up revising my code to use the OOTB way now. This should work regardless of where your path is now. I was initially targeting the AppData location exclusively.
Code here, and tested it for Revit 2019-2023.
I will be pushing the update soon.
