Create Floor Plans using Dynamo! (Views to Sheets 1/3)

- Today’s video focused on how to set up sets of floor plan views automatically using Dynamo in Autodesk Revit. This session is part 1 of 3 in my workflow that deals with automating each step along the way of getting new views onto sheets.
I hope you enjoy the session and learn something new! Feel free to comment any feedback/questions below, or follow my channel if you enjoyed this.

How do you keep the levels from being renamed everytime you run? I have overall and Enlarged plans with different scope boxes.
My guess is that you may have the rename setting toggled on and do not show again. You can modify this in the Revit ini settings if you did this, but don't think there's any other way once you say don't show again.

Awesome!
Cheers!
Hi Gavin, this is amazing so thanks for posting it. I am having one little (well big for me) problem. I can't find the view templates node (the one with the drop down). Do you have another way of finding it besides typing the name of the node. Thanks in advance, Allan
I can see it in archilab currently under 'archilab > Revit > ViewTemplates'.
I'm currently using 2021.25.21 version but I believe it's been in most versions for a while now.
@@AussieBIMGuru thanks so much for that. Im keen to finish this one to do the next two. thanks again for your help and to the knowledge you give out to the community.
Please can you help, I can't find the View Templates node
It should be in archi-lab.net package.
Hello again mate. At the scope box step, the script is only applying a scope box to one of my floor plans. All the floor plans are created each with the desired template but only one with a scope box as I say. I've gone through it a few times but I can seem to work it out.
It sounds like it might be setting to shortest lacing possibly. Assuming you have a list of scope boxes, as well as a list of views, try setting the set node to longest lacing.
@@AussieBIMGuru it was exactly that! I watched the video over again and spotted that I'd missed that out. Thanks again
Is it better to have two scripts like first create the floor plans and then create a separate script to add those views to the sheets and create sheets? ... Or can we combine both scripts to one master script?
They can be combined if you like into one script. I like to think a bit along the way though and have the chance to audit and check that it all worked at each stage.
Many ways to solve a problem, I'm just sharing my way!
It may be worth keeping them separate, as you may not always want to make sheets when you make views. It is also harder for to determine the sheet numbers for each floor plan if there is no excel to guide this step (otherwise you need to define your companies numbering system in dynamo).
I was trying to replicate this script but the View Template node is no longer available. I can't seem to find an alternative for this step. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Try apply view template by name from Crumple if you know the name you want. If the dropdown doesnt work and you need it to be a dropdown the next best thing is a data-shapes UI.
Hi Gavin. Great video! I am havig trouble with finding the View Templates node. It's not in any of the archi-lab.net package versions anymore. Is there some other way of assigning a view template to a view that is being created?
Yes I have nodes in Crumple that can apply view templates by given name and also a node to return all view templates (not a dropdown though). I believe Orchid package has a dropdown for view templates also.
How can I choose just CeilingPlanView or FloorPlanView in one file dynamo?
I believe there should be a ceiling plan by view node if you wish to use this workflow to create ceiling plans instead. You could always use an If node and a List map in order to allow the user to choose either floor plans or ceiling plans being created in one script I think.
great video!! would you be able to elaborate on the way you give users the ability to either select Ceiling Plan View or Floor plan View? thank you.
Can you show the settings for the Sorting Project parameters used in the View templates?
I actually cover this method in depth in another video quite early on from my channel: th-cam.com/video/xHLFdWDxDhA/w-d-xo.html
Essentially, I'm using a few shared parameters to sort the view browser in this case.
Is the "view templates" node from a package ?
It is from the archilab package.
@@AussieBIMGuru Thanks mate !
for those looking for this, like I was, just search 'archi-lab.net' in the packages. It says the author is konrad@, ksobon
Dear Gavin, i couldn't find this topic's script on your Github profile. Script name is either true or same ?
This one I lost in a corruption on my harddrive unfortunately.
Gavin, thanks so much for posting this. I'm having some issues, 1.- when I run this through dynamo player it does not apply the view template or scope box, 2.- whenever I change the inputs, it will overwrite the floor plans created instead of making new ones. Sorry if this is a newb question.
This script can only generate 1 set of views per dynamo session - it really has to be run via dynamo player. Not sure why the templates aren't being applied to be honest, if it works in dynamo it should work in the player also.
What if i want to create a new plan set? with this script he overwrites the views without creating new ones.
If you run via dynamo player it will create new sets each time. If you run via dynamo directly, it will replace the set each time (and is less ideal).
@@AussieBIMGuru Thanks !!!!!
@@Iosconvolto you're welcome!
Please can you help, I can't find the get parameter by name node ,,,,,,
It comes with dynamo, its full name is Element.GetParameterValueByName
Video is blurry so hard to see what your inputs are at times.
Yes my old videos used a wide format monitor. Eventually i switched to youtube resolution though.
@@AussieBIMGuru Got it. did you update the old videos with new ones?
@@hu5tle- no generally I just began using the correct format eventually. Havent got time to remake all my old videos as I'm still making new ones which are more relevant to topics of today. These videos are generally quite old now.
@@AussieBIMGuru Hello, can you let me know what node you used on 4:56? its blurry and i can't tell what you used. Thanks
