Was it my imagination (or an AutoLISP flashback), but did I see nodes somewhere for setting and getting variables to be reused within a graph? Please advise. [image]

You’re a tough customer :smiley: If you don’t mind writing to an external buffer, you can always utilize the “File.FromPath” node: [image]

You’re looking for the Prorubim DS Common Kit package [image]

[quote=“Dimitar_Venkov, post:2, topic:4791”] Prorubim DS Common Kit package [/quote]It does indeed have those nodes. Is there a trick to getting them to work? GetVar is blank even after a reopen of the DYN. [image]

[quote=“Dimitar_Venkov, post:4, topic:4791, full:true”] At this stage it only works with core input types, minus code blocks. [/quote]Variable, but not too variable. Is there another way to do it, like using def in a code block?

Partially. Let’s say you want to call a material or a floor type, then you can totally do that as a DS function with no inputs like so: [image]

I’m not sure I follow you. Could you reiterate on that? Maybe post an example.

Well, you can definitely extend the DS function method with two nodes from ampersand and clockwork: [image]

Clever but it is still static, not variable
