Thanks for sharing it. Started my journey on Dynamo mode than year ago and I've learned a lot since. Made me want to learn other programming languages. Started my Python course few months ago. Can do a lot already, combining Dynamo and Python knowledge. I'm planning to jump in C# and API afterwards. Any suggestion of courses? Thanks again!
API first, C# afterwards is my recommendation. Spending some time with pyRevit is something I recommend as it will make you more comfortable writing entirely in Python without access to Dynamo. Personally I'm still at this stage generally, learning a bit of C# through experimentation at this point mainly. I'm not familiar with any particular C# courses by experience, although I did take CS50 via Harvard (free) which I found very valuable to learn more about raw C and computer science. An old course I know some people like is Danny Bentley's series here on UA-cam, as well as various AU resources, here are some: www.autodesk.com/autodesk-university/class/Pushing-Revit-Next-Level-Intro-Revit-Plugins-C-2018 ua-cam.com/video/C0mNU2bEUSs/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared You'll need to learn about Visual studio, application development and various other areas of C# to make that jump - it's quite difficult and no course out there will teach you 100% of it - lots of experimentation required I'm finding.
Hey Gavin, love this video and I have learnt a lot from your channel overall. I am trying to build a script to create Spaces on Revit using a CAD floor plan. Have you made any scripts like that?
Unfortunately not as spaces aren't really 'findable' in CAD unless they use fills/hatches to represent them. You could look into getting their 'tags' as text objects using DATAEXTRACT command maybe, but Revit/Dynamo don't have full capability in this area. Personally I'd be using Rhino as it can import the CAD and then you can work with the text as an object and get its value, and if their are hatches/regions you can get space separators using Rhino Inside. It's a very bespoke workflow though, too much so for the channel or my free time. Maybe worth researching these ideas and taking advantage of dynamo forums and/or rhino forums.
great efforts.I am using dynamo for the organisation there are some questions from me as a software developer. 1. Scalability: how to deploy the dynamo script to 500 users. 2. Security: user can see the script so there is no secret . The script can be steal easily. 3.Cloud: cant do automation on autodesk cloud.
Yes all considerations to make when scaling dynamo. At 500 users the firm should ideally develop their own software I think. There is no way to lock down dynamo scripts so its just an organisational decision if they use Dynamo at scale - they accept the risk. RE cloud, again you will need the firm to invest in a forge capable developer or team. Dynamo doesn't work in asyncd environments where the user doesnt actively run the script in session and isn't really built for it so wont change to do so in future.
Hi BIM Guru, i am your fans since 2019. Will you tell us more the plan in 2024? and how do we learn dynamo, python, C## more effectively and efficiently? Hope to find more suggestion from you. Thanks alots
I will aim to share a variety of tips and tricks related to Dynamo, pyRevit and the API - many of which I've learnt through my role where I work currently. At the moment I've held back on learning C# as I haven't found an immediate need for it, but have been learning more about CS using the CS50 edux course via Harvard (free). The best way to learn is always a combination of practice, time and ensuring what you research will be relevant to your career ambitions.
that's truly wonderful tut. I have learned a lot from this. for a danymo beginner , it's a clear window.
Glad it was helpful!
It's good to see you back.Although economy where I live is bad now and we don't have much projects.I‘ll continue learn and use dynamo.
I hope the situation improves for you in the new year!
Great presentation Gavin. Thank you very very much for sharing your knowledge with us. Always everyone can learn something new from you. Cheers :)
You're most welcome!
Thank you so much for the effort that you put into your content much appreciated

It's been long seeing content from the channel. Thanks for sharing
You're welcome! I'm hoping to produce some more Dynamo and pyRevit content in early 2024 :)
@@AussieBIMGuru I have always liked your presentation style. 👍

Best teacher, Please more pyrevit content
Will certainly use more Revit API and likely pyRevit in future videos!

The sound is not okay please fix it.
Hrm it seems ok on my side when i watch it in browser or on mobile with device sound. Maybe a stereo/mono channel issue with headphones?
