Hi,
Hoping someone can help, apologies for my terrible python…
I am trying to set graphic overrides in a view just for patterns, I am trying to do this through python, I have got it working, but only for a single element, could someone point out my mistake? Big thanks to Konrad @ Archi-Lab for the original code…
import clr
clr.AddReference('ProtoGeometry')
from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import *
# Import ToDSType(bool) extension method
clr.AddReference("RevitNodes")
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
# Import DocumentManager and TransactionManager
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager
from System.Collections.Generic import *
# Import RevitAPI
clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
uiapp = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentUIApplication
app = uiapp.Application
import sys
pyt_path = r'C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython 2.7\Lib'
sys.path.append(pyt_path)
#The inputs to this node will be stored as a list in the IN variable.
dataEnteringNode = IN
def ProcessList(_func, _list):
return map( lambda x: ProcessList(_func, x) if type(x)==list else _func(x), _list )
def Unwrap(e):
return UnwrapElement(e)
def OverrideColorPattern(e, f):
gSettings = OverrideGraphicSettings()
gSettings.SetProjectionFillPatternId(f)
doc.ActiveView.SetElementOverrides(e.Id, gSettings)
return e
elements = ProcessList(Unwrap, IN[0])
fillPat = UnwrapElement(IN[1])
try:
errorReport = None
TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)
test = []
for i in elements:
test.append(OverrideColorPattern(i, fillPat))
TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()
except:
# if error accurs anywhere in the process catch it
import traceback
errorReport = traceback.format_exc()
#Assign your output to the OUT variable
if errorReport == None:
OUT = test
else:
OUT = errorReport
You need to indent this line (with Tab)
Thanks Alban, I’ll have a go and let you know!
EDIT: That’s odd, my formatting didn’t copy and lost all the indents!
Hi Mark,
I edited your script :
import clr
clr.AddReference('ProtoGeometry')
from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import *
# Import ToDSType(bool) extension method
clr.AddReference('RevitNodes')
import Revit
clr.ImportExtensions(Revit.Elements)
# Import DocumentManager and TransactionManager
clr.AddReference('RevitServices')
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager
from System.Collections.Generic import *
# Import RevitAPI
clr.AddReference('RevitAPI')
import Autodesk
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
uiapp = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentUIApplication
app = uiapp.Application
import sys
pyt_path = r'C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython 2.7\Lib'
sys.path.append(pyt_path)
#The inputs to this node will be stored as a list in the IN variable.
dataEnteringNode = IN
def ProcessList(_func, _list):
return map( lambda x: ProcessList(_func, x) if type(x)==list else _func(x), _list )
def Unwrap(e):
return UnwrapElement(e)
def OverrideColorPattern(e, f):
gSettings = OverrideGraphicSettings()
gSettings.SetProjectionFillPatternId(f)
doc.ActiveView.SetElementOverrides(e.Id, gSettings)
return e
if isinstance(IN[1], list):
elements = ProcessList(Unwrap, IN[0])
else:
elements = list(Unwrap(IN[0]))
fillPat = UnwrapElement(IN[1])
TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)
test = []
for i in elements:
test.append(OverrideColorPattern(i, fillPat.Id))
TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()
OUT = test

Thanks Alban,
Apologies but I didn’t explain myself very well…
What I should have said is… Say I have a list of 4 filled regions, I want to feed in a list of 4 different hatches.
Currently the script only works with a single hatch input.
Thank you for your time,
Mark
Why don’t you use a custom node and levels ?

Thanks Alban, that works great!
