Hi everybody!
My first Python script is a fact!
It takes a list of ranges, changes the integers to strings and put one or two leading zeros in front to create a serial number. I use it as a suffix for all instances of a specific FamilyType in the model.
I’m creating Dynamo graphs for years now but finally got around to start learning Python.
This forum is a great help as always. As well as other sources like the videos by Gavin Crump (Aussie Bim Guru), my friend Juun and this website: https://treyhunner.com/.
In the attached pdf you will find the script as well as a full explaination on what every line does.
There may be other and/or better ways to do what I did and I’m happy to learn them.
I hope this document will be usefull to any of you fellow beginners.
(More will follow but I am slow and have more hobbies so I don’t know when that will be…)
People keep telling me to start for years now and I decided to finally listen.
For now, youtube and websites that explain the things I encounter.
I follow the tutorials by the Aussie Bim Guru
Haven’t done all of them yet. I also was helping a friend with a big Python script so that’s how I rolled into it and finally started.
He made a big script outside Revit.
But when some things failed during the testing I did for him, he broke it up into pieces and made a Dynamo graph containing a lot of smaller scripts. That way I could understand it better and find mistakes, typo’s etc.
You are most welcome @Menno_Mekes ! One thing to note - if you see any that have an error similar to below - then it’s a newline issue which is very solvable … I’ve just not had the time to go and validate all of these yet
