https://uploads.disquscdn.c... Hi John, fairly new to Dynamo and I am having an error pop up using the Viewport.Create node. I was wondering if you had anyone else having this issue, and if so, what the resolution may be... See attached image. Let me know if you need more info. Thanks

Hmm, do you mind opening this on the Dynamo forum as a post? Please include sample files and a description.

Hi John,

I am also having issues with the newer node "Document.CopyElementsFromDocument". I've tried to run it through the linked instance, but to no avail. I'm trying to copy ViewSheet elements from one project to another. I keep getting the error that it "failed to copy one or more elements".

any ideas?

thanks in advance

Do the sheets have live views on them? (Floor plans, legends, etc)

HI John,

Im trying to use your nodes to copy ViewSheet elements from one project to another. I've noted where you say the nodes have been changed to work as linked documents. I've tried to work them that way but still end up with it failing to copy one or more elements. is this node not setup to work with ViewSheet elements?

thanks in advance

You are not going to be able to copy sheets if they have views on them that are live.

Hello John,

Im currently working on a project that require alot of copy/paste between linked models.

From what i understand this is doable with dynamo, and ive found this topic where you help getting a a script to work. How ever when i go to the Github page for Rythm i dont see the nodes used for the script is the nodes pack, can you help me out? :)

Link to the topic i mention:

Hi Martin, the nodes are available if you install Rhythm from the package manager. I recently converted a large portion of Rhythm to "ZeroTouch" which embeds the nodes in a DLL that gets downloaded through package manager.

The new code requires the document to be linked, thus providing an "instance" of it. Initially I had this blank, but it wouldn't work all of the time.

Hello JohnP,
Thanx for creating and update this package.
With this update you changed the Node "Element.CopyFromDocument" to "Document.CopyElementsFromDocument". In this new Node you created a sourceInstance input, but i don't know what to fill in. With the old node i opened a document in background and copied some elements, but with this new Node i can't get it working. Can you tell me what to do?

Thanx in advance.
