[Searching] Do you have a love/hate relationship with Dynamo’s Search? :mag: Did you yearn for it to be better? To do what you asked of it? To just work? :handshake:To, dare I say, be a joyful experience? :heart_eyes: Well, so do we! This year we are going all in on revamping Dynamo’s Search afte…

[image] john_pierson: I agree with the search not being great, but my quote varies slightly. [image] john_pierson: Dynamo is great but the search sucked so much, I spent a lot of my own time making a better (open-source) search to help beginner users who are getting started with Dynamo. …

Really enjoy the thoughts and examples everyone has placed. I still haven’t seen one of my “favorites” come up. The GetParameterValueByName, SetParameterValue and just Parameters always throw me off. Searching for these is a wild ride, and seem to always happen when doing a live demo, which really …

Happen to be looking for some Curve.Trim nodes today… curve, curve trim, and curvetrim don’t return any of the Trim nodes. Only trim and curve.trim return anything useful.

Have you search for a coordinate system node lately? There is a 99% chance you won’t find what you’re after by typing; I just tell people to go to expand the shelf in the library and put in nodes manually. Meanwhile the designscript search for the same is an order of magnitude faster…

[image] Warning suggests “Convert Units” but no node exists and the search returns nothing. [image] “Convert By Units” will return its respective node but not ConvertByUnits. “ConvertByUnits” will return its respective node but not Convert By Units.

What you need to do FIRST is to standardize Node NAMING. Second, the search would cover node names AND node descriptions (or make the latter optional with “expanded search”)

First at all is, I think team need to define again node name standard, may node with standard is having space, many name nodes are standard with no space between word. Example : Select Model Element => It should be can follow standard SelectModelElement And then when user search, easy to consi…

A huge thank you to everyone who has passed in failing cases here, we are happy to report that with initial work we have solved all of the Dynamo core failures by implementing Lucene and indexing heavily into… search indexing :nerd_face: Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured text sear…

Looks promising. What would also be very helpful is the possibility to limit the search to nodes with a specific input type and/or output type. (I don’t think this is possible yet, correct me if I’m wrong). Could be solved via checkboxes or additional input fields. Or by simply typing it into the …
