Good day! How to zoom to a specific location in model space by using Dynamo for Civil 3D?

Try this (done with CPython so Civil 3D 2022) : [image] Code: import System from System import * from Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices import * output = "Error" FirstCorner = IN[0] LastCorner = IN[1] command = "zoom\nW\n"+IN[0]+"\n"+IN[1]+"\n" OUT = command adoc = Application.DocumentManag…

all the dynamo nodes to get the point as string could have been included in the python node too, but anyway I went with doing it with dynamo *edit - also I sent this quickly, started using variables and just realized that I didn’t used them on the command so yeah, no the best python code …

Would you be able to help write a quick dynamo script to help me use zoom window using the view class inside python? I have attached a .dyn and a .DWG.

I think this type of graph could end up being easier to use with the zoom window rather than the center point, width, and height that I was using before. I would prefer not to send to the command line and just use the vi…

Thank you for your quick reply. How do I get this python script to Go to Layout1 tab Switch to Modelspace within the viewport (Activate the Viewport) Unlock Viewport Perform Zoomwindow using points given Lock the Viewport Switch back to Paperspace Save the file
