Tool.PlaceViewsOnExistingSheets node not working

I am getting the warning that the inputs for steamnodes tool.placeviewsonexistingsheets is not working? I haven’t seen this before. It appears to be internal to the node. it’s not receiving inputs. This is the latest version and was installed this morning.

Alternatively - if there are any newer packages that accomplish the same function i’d be glad to hear about it.

Viewport.Create in Rhythm was made to do the same thing

Hey john - I have viewports/sheets created, i am trying to do a batch placement onto the corresponding sheets

Well, you misunderstand what Tool.PlaceViewsOnSheets does then. It creates viewports… So if you already have those, then this is not going to work.

Your first screenshot shows

  1. Views
  2. Sheets
  3. Viewport locations

And this is what Rhythm’s node can do.

Steamnodes has not been updated in years, so it would be wise to try other options. And with your last screenshots about fixing the node, I doubt that is worth the trouble.

Ah. Understood. I was using the wrong terminology. Views were created, but the viewports onto sheets / placement were not. That rhythm node is exactly what i was looking for. Much appreciated!
