archi-lab.net has been around for a long time. It has started back when I was just a student at IIT, and needed a place to write down my thoughts. Inspired by the greats that came before me, it was means of sharing my knowledge with all that would read and listen. Over the years, I have made many posts, recorded many videos, written lots of code and answered plenty of questions…all courtesy of archi-lab. However, due to new life circumstances, I have less time now to write the blog, and maintain all of the code that I have written over the years. That’s why I am asking everyone that is willing to support me, and wants to see me keep writing blog posts, and sharing my ideas, solutions and occasional rants to become a Patreon Patron. I will use the money to maintain my blog, keep writing, keep maintaining the code and who knows, maybe even create new stuff.

Hi Konrad,
Thank you for your open source attitude. I am merely a beginner at this. I tried using your SelectByParameterValue Node but could not figure out what was the evaluator input. Will appreciate your tip on this.
Hope to be able to contribute like you in the future.

Have a look at this post: https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/filter-element-by-length-type-parameter/34448/5
I have a quick question. I am wondering if it is possible to use Dynamo to create a pdf from a revit project in order of the table of contents. I have not been able to find a clear description and wanted to know if it was possible to write an interface list that orders the pdf by the organization of the table of contents.
I would appreciate any info you may have.
Thanks Gretchen
I think it might be possible. You would have to extract a sorted/ordered list of sheets from the schedule, and then create the PDF in that order. I haven’t tried that, but it sounds possible.
You are using the System library.Windows.Interactivity.dll that you took from the Blend SDK. However, all other products use this library from the public NuGet package. As a result, Dynamo does not work in the presence of your package of nodes and other plugins. Please use the correct library
https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.Windows.Interactivity.WPF/
Nice. Yes, I indeed grabbed mine from Blend SDK if I remember correctly. I didn’t realize there was a conflict. I will sort that out ASAP. Thanks for the tip.
Afternoon Konrad,
I am new to Dynamo and I am trying to find you node Workset.GetAll & Workset.Name, I have downloaded the latest version of archi-lab.net package 2021.25.7. Do i need to go to another version and then save that node, or have you renamed it?
Thanks
Louise
If you are in Revit 2020, and Dynamo 2.3, there is an issue with the latest version of archi-lab.net package. Please downgrade to version that starts with 2020.
Hey Konard, I am trying to use the Archilab package and have an issue while trying to make “Floor Plan views. By view types and level.”
Warning: ” Warning: One or more of the input types are not matching. Couldn’t find a version of ByLevelAndType that takes arguments of type (__array,string)”
Where am I going wrong?
Thank you.

You probably want to clean up that list structure. Empty list must be throwing it off.
Hey Konard,
Is it allowed to copy your python scrip for dynamo revit imported line pattern cleanup
thanks and regards
Yeah, I don’t have a problem with that. Please leave the note on top of the script, but other than that, I am game.
Hello Konrad,
Your package is absolute the best! I make use of it a lot in dynamo.
I also make use of Select.LevelByName but when i upgrade your package it seems to lose the possibility to use this in a codeblock. Do you know ehy this happens?
Mhmmmm, I don’t. Can you perhaps post a screenshot of the issue. Perhaps a sample file would help me understand what you are asking.
Hi Konrad,
Thank you for your work on Archi-lab. I ran into an issue today (Revit2019) and was wondering if you’re aware of it. After downloading the Archi-lab_Mandrill package, I was contacted by my IT department who told me they had detected malware in the program. Our company antivirus program is designed to detect certain behaviors that may be malicious so the malware may be a false positive but I wanted to know your thoughts. Thank you!

Mandrill is Open Source, so you can see ALL of the code that it might be executing. Please have your IT examine it, and if they still think that Mandrill is malware, then I am sorry but there is not much that I can do about it. I cannot be any more transparent than this. Here’s a link to the source code: https://github.com/BadMonkeysTeam/Mandrill
Hi Konrad,
All my scripts containing Archi-lab.net nodes seem to break when using Revit 22.1.21.13 and Dynamo 2.12.
When I get Archi-lab.net to show up on Dynamo 2.12 after adding it to my packages, only the dyf nodes will show up.
I don’t think Dynamo 2.12 is reading Archi-lab.net correctly, even the icon doesn’t display for Archi-lab.net.
I have tried using different versions with no success.
Any idea what I should do?

archi-lab.net versions are now tied to the version of the revit. for revit 2022 look for version of arch-lab that ends with “22”
