Feature Request: Hooks for DYNs / run a specific DYN when a specific event in Revit occurs

Open paulmst opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

e.g - if a user has Relay installed, and clicks sync (for example), then a specific dynamo script runs in the background or, like your 'Prevent In-Place Family Creation' warning message, which appears when a user clicks 'Model In-Place'

K, I selfishly want this too so I will update when/if I get the time for it. 👀

when a specific event occurs... or PERIODICALLY would be very nice!

This could be tough to implement with the required fail safes, though as long as it is within the dynamics of what is allowed in a revit addon then it should be ok to do.

Though i would add that anything that is done has the highest thought on performance for users over its implementation. As a script that runs every 15 minutes but takes 5 minutes to run will make users very unhappy.

Great idea/thought as long as it is thought about correctly on a user perspective.

@brencass of course! Hope you didn't think I was planning on wiping out a quarter of everyone's day! I can see event triggers having much more possibilities than periodically for sure!
