Place wall hosted object (electrical receptacle)

Hello Damon,

I think the problem here is the nested lists, can you make it work with only one wall? If that is the case you have at least two options:

  2. Wrap the graph that works for one wall in a custom node, and feed it several walls.

The location curve of the wall is the centerline curve at Base Level. If you want to place your family instance at a higher elevation you will have to translate the line or your points.

If you want to place a family instance at a face you can use the other node i Spring Nodes “FamilyInstance.ByFacePoints”. Here is one way to get the wall surfaces facing a room:
