Sort coordinates from excel

Hello,
I’m trying to create floors by coordinates from excel. I manage to this with the help of the “chop list” node. But this won’t work if a floor is created with fewer or lesser points then in the example I made. In the excel sheet there is information about wihich floor the coordinate is located. So with this information I’m thinking it would be possible to construct a list that contains the coordinates from level 1 and another from Level 2 and so on, and feed this into “Floor.ByOutlineTypeAndLevel”. I just don’t now how to sort it?

Thank you in advance

  • You probably need to first split your list into separate sublists based on column G (levels) using something like List.GroupByKey
  • It is probably best to use something like Polycurve.byPoints using a list of points, rather than creating each line separately from start and endpoint. They’d need to be in the correct order going around the perimeter

You’ll have a better chance of getting a complete answer if you post your graph and Excel file, to save someone recreating it

Hello Andrew and thank you for helping, I will upload my graph and my excel sheet.

You don’t need the first 3 columns in your spreadsheet- just need to list the points (in consecutive order around the perimeter) for each level.
If these points are correct (i.e. no duplicate points), you can remove the PruneDuplicates node
