Hi All,

My question is how to filter all selected sheets by their specific volume number, discipline, etc.

I’ve been using the archi labs workflow and can add a revision to all sheets but of course would like to have more control over which sheets i’m adding to.

Thanks,

Don

Hi @dkalant

Before we answer to your question. Could you please go back to your previous topics and respond them.

> Hi All, I am trying to move a set of points so that they have a ‘sine’ like offset. In grasshopper I would use a graph mapper but am unsure how to do it in dynamo. I drew in red the ‘pattern’ im trying to get at. I attempted adding a “math.sine” into the y component, but I think my list structure needs to be flattened. couldn’t upload the script i have so far, says new users cannot attach files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. [image]

Hi, I responded to the “move collection” thread by posting an image to what I accomplished. Im not sure reviving the floor area type thread is worth much commenting. Thanks!

bump. I used 'parameter.parameterbyname" to at least get the sheets that contain them. i need to now figure out how to filter the main sheet list against the list coming out of the parameter
