Can anyone tell me with which node (perhaps GeniusLoci) it is possible to separate, or better identify a block specifically from the cad link? That is, in the linked file I have several blocks, however I want to identify only one to convert it into a family. But I’m not succeeding, even though the b…

Amiga @cintiamiranda21 You are missing basic points! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: What I am doing is feeding the node with the list of blocks that exist in the CAD file, viewing the preview and asking only the indexes of the blocks that interest me, it is a “manual” way of filtering, I do not kno…

This is solution for you, use it to export from autocad is best way to have correct Block Name and Anonymous name : chuongmep/CadAddinManager/blob/95759f9d0b1085430e3f643d6d7d82f0ef5ec079/Test/ExportBlockCoordinate.cs#L72-L79 BlockTableRecord? blockTableRecord = tr.G…

For now, with OpenMEP Package, you can easy get information of Autocad without link file to Revit https://chuongmep.github.io/OpenMEP/api/OpenMEPSandbox.Autocad.BlockReference.html#OpenMEPSandbox_Autocad_BlockReference_Name_OpenMEPSandbox_Autocad_CadObject_ [image]

Amigo @chuongmep Buenas, Thanks a lot for the effort and your work man, but i think this issue with the AnonymousName is a hard nut to crack, awesome package by the way, ther is a lot of nodes to explore master!! :saluting_face: [Block Name Fail] Still give it to me a random and unknown name of b…

I will support it for next version with Civil3D, the first version just is Sandbox only :smiley: : [image]

Awesome Master @chuongmep , Thanks a lot for the effort!! :wink: I Will Explore OpenMEP a little bit more!!

You are correct, I have tried to explore all deep of COM API from Autocad, but it can’t do with that, I think best way is use Dynamo Civil 3d or use Data Extraction in case can export. :sleepy:

Data extraction is definitely the best path forward here. You can also trigger Dynamo for Civil to report out the desired data, however that it a very elaborate setup and reliant on the COM api although in a lesser extent.

Wow… Thanks so much again for the help. It worked! Thanks a lot. Now the sockets are only inverted and not connected to the wall, the families are not connected, but if I were to change it, I would have to change the whole routine, one by one. I don’t know how to act.

the only problem now is that my families are already configured according to the names of the cad blocks and they are in the routine, and these families do not have a link to the wall, therefore, they are becoming rotated and far from the wall, but if I edit and place a link, it doesn’t save over th…

No, it didn’t work. Now that I understand, it’s what I was really afraid of, it’s not reading the block name and converting, it’s converting according to the import position. That is, as it runs in different projects, a low shot, for example, is in the list at position 2, but in this project it was …

Fierro pariente!! Amigo @chuongmep I did’nt find the node ResetBlock I think is from your private sandbox, but BlockReference.EffectiveName Gives the real Name, You Rocks man, Thanks a lot!!
