Hello guys, I want to select column reinforcement at the selected level. when I use python script, there is a problem so that the result becomes null. previously I used the package from Genius Loci. Is there any advice that can be given to me? Thanks.
Do you want a Python 
solution per se.
What you want can be done with just
nodes AFAIK.
Also post the Python code
if you need help with that.
Canât tell what the problem is by
just that image.
I using this script.

Post the Python in preformatted text next time 
Your Python
But you didnât really answer my question.
Can the solution be a non Python one?
If no, then i canât help you. I donât know any Python.
And did you use a node in the past which doesnât work anymore?

Thanks for advice, i will try to my dynamo.
Sorry sir. Where can i find Rebars.Hostâs node?
