Two of these electrical elements called, “Student” are hidden in view… but it says they’re not. Can I do this or is it not exposed in the API? [image]

I just linked in a blank model to another blank model with 3 families identical families I set to be “Electrical equipment” Then I hid 2 of those in view.

And how did you gather ‘linked elements visible in the view’? As far as I know linked elements are going to say ‘I can be seen’ if the link instance they are in can be seen.

What do you mean how did I gather them?

Sorry - asking the wrong question. Using ‘select model element’, what element ID would you get if you were to select one of the linked elements if you were to unhide it?

Not quite sure what you mean but… The element Id in Dynamo wasn’t in the current Revit model (so it must have come from the link?)

I am about to head into a meeting so i skimmed through this with no audio. It might help, or i might be wasting your time… [Unhide all elements in View using Dynamo, Revit API and Python!]

[image] Alien: The element Id in Dynamo wasn’t in the current Revit model (so it must have come from the link?) Exactly. The element IS visible in the view and the element you see in the link instance (not the family instance in the link instance). Well I believe that is what the API thinks a…

But it’s not visible… Some muppet has tabbed to it (there are loads in the real scenario) and right clicked and selected, “hide element” … Is it possible to undo with Dynamo? Otherwise one of my poor colleagues has to spend a few hours/ days manually undoing this mess. :frowning:

[image] Alien: Some muppet has tabbed to it (there are loads in the real scenario) and right clicked and selected, “hide element” … A thought: Duplicate the link instance, and see if they are visible in the duplicate. Then see what happens if you delete the old link instance. Or just select …
