Naming counter when using AxonometricView.ByEye

#1

hi,

I’ve made a script that adds views to 3D views, and it functions as expected but in one aspect;
the names are either random generated, or I end up getting way more views than needed (depending on the view name variable)

I’ve tried using

  1. static string
    with static string, I get 5 views as specified, but the names are random

  2. list
    if I use a list; I get 4 extra views for each view I make.

in both cases, rest of the script is unchanged.
can someone please explain what I’m doing wrong.
thanx.

ty for looking into it. I’ve added my test XLS file as well.
revit file is default file with the house (just select any element).

@5thSth You need 15 names to match the number of points. Set lacing to shortest

thank you for a quick reply. Lacing does the trick

I’ve also added:

t;
1…t;

in code block to generate names dynamically depending on xls size. ty.
