I am working on a dynamo routine to convert a survey drawing to our standards. I got the layer translation all set but i still need to do more cleanup like make all the objects to be by layer and set all the text to be an specific style. Is there a way to run a command within dynamo, a script (.scr)…

FYI there is a dedicated node in Camber starting in v2.0.0 for this. [image] How to use civil 3D commands in a Python Script? Civil3D @andre.demski @Christhian @WrightEngineering FYI Camber v2.0.0 has a node to send commands to the command line. [sendcommand]

You can use Python to open a file. I am not at work at the moment, but if you can’t find anything (tomorrow)i could write you something.

Thank you Daan i appreciate it. I just don’t see were to start because i am not familiar at all with python.

This is an example you can use to set all the Text and MText to the same style [image] SetAllObjectsColorByLayerAndSetAllTextsStyle.dyn (6.0 KB)

[image] import sys path = r’C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython 2.7\Lib’ sys.path.append(path) import os def playSomething(path): from os import startfile startfile(path) OUT = playSomething(IN[0]) I hope you can use this script, this will be able to run almost anything.

Thank you Paolo, the script works very well.

Thank you Dann, i will give it a shot.

Dann, i tried to run a simple .scr file using the python script but i get errors " runScript.dyn (4.8 KB) "[image002]

Hi Dann, thanks for the reply. I added the “StringfromObject” between the FileFromPath and i still getting the same error. I am attaching the files. (FYI the .scr file is share as .txt becaouse the forum upload won’t let me attached as with the script extension) [runScript_2019-12-12_10-35-55] runSc…

Okay i also see that i get that problem, try using this setup, this works for me :slight_smile: New Setup for csanchez 2019-12-13.dyn (3.4 KB)
