Use dynamo to change dimensions of Family Type from Excel file

Hi all,

I’m using Dynamo to duplicate a family type from an excel file. I have been able to create the new families and it is filling in some of the parameters from the excel file. It is not changing the depth, width, or height from the excel file. Those parameters are instance parameters in the family.

Thanks for any help.

you can indeed modify the parameters of Type, but you cannot do it for the instance para if the object is not placed

Thanks, are you saying I would have to place all the items and then run a separate script that would change the size of them from the excel file.

you can place all the occurrences and modify the parameters and then delete them
