Hi All,

I'm one of the several that like to play around around with Dynamo to improve my Revit workflow. I have zero coding experience so i like Dynamo beacuse it allows me to do something really close to coding. Today i want to share this little node i made. 

This node help me to automate a relly boring and time consuming task : the creation of Showrooms. A Revit showroom i a file where you place a lot of families in order to enable designers to look at the families instead of choosing them from a folder. Moreover a showroom is also needed at the end of a project in ored to evaluate what to save from the families created during the project lifetime. This node has improved consistently my workflow so i wanna share it.  

 
To built this node you need to use the custum node "All Family Types Of Category" from the Clockwork package.

This node is going to read all the family types from one category (Furniture in this example) loaded in the project and place it on a parametric grid. 

In this way i can save a lot of time avoiding to place all the families manually.
