Can someone support me please, I have drawn a model line circle on Revit and selected it into Dynamo using Select model Element and shown in on Dynamo with Element.Geometry I need to show the center point of the circle and to be able to move the circle in different ways Any support, please Thank you ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/6/0/607105fabdd38a93a44cca8c10ebef359e9f2d50.png) ---

Here you can find some more fun > [@List of mathematical shapes and how to create them using Designscript](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/list-of-mathematical-shapes-and-how-to-create-them-using-designscript/17505): > > Hi, I’m on a quest to get the corresponding disignscript of the shapes in this list and get as many as possible slight_smile If this works it could be a treasure trove for all that come across this thread. I got to this idea because i wanted to draw a parabolic line on paper (2D) , then bend the paper in a parabolic shape, making it 3D, and write it down using designscript. Any help on this one? So this idea of the treasure trove was born, and give this post a “like” if you support it. Y… ---

Thank you but after using the number slider, as if the circle is not moving ---

Hi, You don’t have to use a slider, you can just put in a number? Perhaps check your scale… if your slider is set to just move 1mm perhaps the shift isn’t noticable? You could post your graph again and that would help us assist you 🙂 Thanks, Mark ---

oh Sorry my bad, it is moving but as you can see from the image below it is leaving a trace , since this trace is also shown on the main Revit file ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/dynamobim/original/3X/a/8/a833856e3c34e32417b65e0b9f8ae1d497fb1c9d.png) ---

All data in Dynamo is non-destructive. That is, the data generated by the first node in a chain persists after you make the 3rd node in the chain. This allows you to refer to that version a second time which is very handy, but it also means that you need to disable the geometry previews in the prior nodes. Right click the nodes creating the geometry you want to see and deselect preview, or select all the nodes you don’t want to see and right click the background and select ‘disable all geometry preview’.
