Hello DYNAMO Gurus, I’m trying to create a graph which allows me to place several views in a single sheet, Till now I’m having all the views I need duplicated into my project browser, problem is when I try to place those views in a single Sheet, I’m using the **“Sheet.PlaceViews”** from the Rhythm package but I’m pretty lost since the node ask me for views and what I’m obtaining is a string (see pic) what I’m I doing wrong? , is there any way to convert a string to the right entry for this node, any advice or recommendation will be very much appreciated, best regards! ![Creating%20and%20placing%20views%20in%20a%20single%20sheet](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/c/2/c2017b8ca279137fdd72310b29b9add5b52de2bc.jpeg) ---

I think everything is correct, the node **Sheet.DuplicateWithDetailing** return views element. You can check with **Object.Type** node or if you scroll the list to the left you see that is an element (there is a green Id number). Try to plug that output to **Sheet.PlaceViews** and see what happen. ---

Hi @ [lucamanzoni](https://forum.dynamobim.com/u/lucamanzoni) I’ve tried your solution but I’m still having NUL from the **Sheet.PlaceViews** (see pic), the **Object.Type** node shows me that I’m trying to place the right category into the node and the sheet, so I’m still having the same issue, I’m not able to place a bunch of VIEWS into a SINGLE sheet, the problem seems to be something that the node expects but if is not a view, what type of element I should lace to that entry?, again thank you!! ![View_Duplicate_2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/0/e/0e930b17806586b4650eb9259e04bb95655e2347.jpeg) ---

Are you feeding in a sheet name or a sheet number? ---

Hi Again [Marcel\_Rijsmus](https://forum.dynamobim.com/u/Marcel_Rijsmus) and thanks for your reply, I’ve changed that entry for a Number , but nothing happens I’m still having the NUL value for the **Sheet.PlaceViews** node, so I’m still having my views duplicate but I’m not able to place those (6) views into my SINGLE sheet, best regards ![Sheet_Number](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/1/b/1b5567296158c9dbdc2d2e6a543f995bfd69abda.jpeg) ---

The Sheet number parameter is a text parameter Its a bit confusing i know So feed it the sheet number as a text eg. Sheet 101 would be “101” in a code block ---

Hi [Marcel\_Rijsmus](https://forum.dynamobim.com/u/Marcel_Rijsmus) and thank you for your kind reply, I just tried to change the value foe a Code Block which contains the Sheet Number, but that don’t work either , I’m still having my views duplicated but I’m not able to place it into a single sheet, best regards ![Feeding%20entries_2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/3/2/32c39af6c02ab8e2ba94404a9c1a0d3937d4610b.jpeg) ---

ok so we need the sheet with its id. use the categories node and all elements of category filter the given sheets by Sheet number see how that goes ---
