I just wanted to find a quick intro to DesignScript so that I could save time and your video was right on-point. Exactly at the pace needed and exactly the concepts needed for anyone with only a basic knowledge of coding to get the gist of it and get results. Thank you very much!
Hi Gavin, As a 74-year old construction engineer I still remember the drawing tables I started my occupation with. 10 years back my doctor told me to not only keep my body in good shape by exercising but also keep my brains working. Following your lectures is just doing that. Thanks a lot and you young guys are lucky with all the tools and toys you have nowadays to do your work!
I'm in admiration of people who have been through many changes in approach and platforms in our industry, great work on keeping up with it all and pursuing fresh approaches! I briefly used drafting tables at university and I can attest that the platforms haven't yet captured the tactile/fluid motions of our hand - the body is a feat of engineering! Very much agree with the doctor, mind/body are closely connected. Glad to have helped provide some examples of new ways of working!
This tutorial really helped to get my head around design script. I knew it wasn't complicated but I wanted to understand the whole picture. You delivered in spades.
Thanks so much, glad this helped understand a rather tricky side of dynamo! There is a lot more complexity in the DS side of dynamo, but hopefully this acts as a launching pad into it for those keen to delve deeper. Great to see you're working your way through the series too, MVP!
You'll need to use replication guides for this. There is some examples on the primer here; primer.dynamobim.org/07_Code-Block/7-2_Design-Script-syntax.html
I tried the "squared" function but its not recognizing it. Its not highlighting it in blue as a definition, I am doing something wrong or its the new version of dynamo that changed? thanks
The squared function in this case was definef as a custom one. I believe custom functions should still work like in this video, although I mostly use Python for functions these days.
It sure is! You can write in either python or develop 'zero touch nodes' which use c and are precompiled into custom package dlls. Good guide here; teocomi.com/dynamo-unchained-1-learn-how-to-develop-zero-touch-nodes-in-csharp/
personally i dont learn just being spoken to i wish he d make working exercises like to day we are learning how to make a user interface and does a tutorial . that's how people really learn how to use a software
@@SupacellOfficial go check out my dynamo playlist - plenty of real world scripts I've used in practice. This is just my learning series for beginners, which is quite old and out of date now. Dynamo is one of those tools of which you have to find how it specifically helps you - I can't lead you to the problems you need it to solve for you, the best anyone can do is give you the fundamentals you can use once you find them yourself. Regarding a user interface, in dynamo this needs the data shapes package unless you use dynamo player.
@@AussieBIMGuru omg thankyou very true while you're online im going to take the opportunity to ask u have you done a tutorial on how to automate whats in a drawing into a schedule?
@@SupacellOfficial generally if using Revit, you could look at this using the new Schedule tools in 2023 where they added the ability to filter schedules by view potentially. The alternative is to use element/material keynoting and a keynote legend which generally only shows which keynotes are tagged in views on their given sheet.
im really dumb, have no knowledge and still new in dynamo by watching youtube.. how do you put xy point list in the code block? code block x y like that..i really have no idea cuz its already there when you show it
@@AussieBIMGuru go fast and break stuff. thanks for the content. after finding out that dynamo is a succint, plain script underneath instead of some ugly xml I got big hopes for this project

Thanks!
hI there,,, thanks for the tutorials ....how do we get lacing as a cross product for code blocks...for instance points by coordinates...

@@AussieBIMGuru Thanks,,, this one was quite going on in my head for a really long time... i appreciate..
genius !
Thanks!

Replied to your email.
why does my code block have a number in front? for example I want to write 1; .. but it appears as 1|1; ?
They added row indices in later versions of dynamo.
Hi I am using the current version of dynamo.I can't do this with code block in the String command " when I use this mark it gives an error.
What does the error say?
@@AussieBIMGuru EOF expected
@@cengizhankaya6272 make sure you check all strings are closed with another ", all lists are closed with a ] and all lines end in a ;

Is it possible to insert a c# node that links direct to the Revit Api? Design script feels very unnatural once you know how to code
It sure is! You can write in either python or develop 'zero touch nodes' which use c and are precompiled into custom package dlls.

This is done using design script - watch from about 7:55.
2:20 lol
It's make or break stuff haha
