Resetting Color to Default by Color.by.ARGB

Revit
1

Hi,
How do I reset Color changed by Color.by.ARGB node .
Inside dynamo and inside Revit too

2

Depending on how the change has been made, you could try the Element.ResetOverridesInView node from the #clockwork package?

You look to be using Dynamo 2.0 my test was in 1.3.2

Can you expand and pin all node list boxes?

This is in older dynamo. What am I doing wrong?

It appears your problem lies in the #clockwork node.
Can you try an extracted python script?

Hi, This is not working all the time. It doesn’t respond in 3d views. And sometimes in Plan view as well. Please help
