I am trying to get the z Justification value of a structural beam and then use that information as part of a tag. It seems like when I do get the z Justification Dynamo returns an interger, and not if the beam is Top, Center or Bottom justified.

Any suggestions on how I can get this?

I am trying to drive this info to a tag, so I could have a tag that gives me Bottom of steel or top of steel.

Hi Tom,

One of the possible way is to use “LunchBoxGetParameter” node:

@Tom_Kunsman How about an implementation of a Dynamo dictionary?
