Description

You build a great script. It works perfectly. And then it stays on your computer. Your colleague opens it, sees hundreds of nodes, and calls you. You spend twenty minutes explaining what the script does instead of the script just doing it. Dynamo Player ends this permanently. It is a panel inside Revit — on the View tab — that shows your scripts as a simple list. One click runs the script. No Dynamo canvas. No visible nodes. No training required. The Is Input setting is the key: right-click any node, tick Is Input, rename it with a clear label — that label appears in Player as a field the user fills in. Your colleague never sees Dynamo. They see a field and a Play button. Week 13 builds the complete Dynamo Player workflow from the ground up — a real three-node Automatic Rotation script, deployed live through Player, then shared across a team via a network folder or SharePoint so every team member gets the latest version automatically. Build once. Share with everyone. Run forever. Developed by the AI in BIM team in collaboration with GBH Elite!

✅ WHAT'S INCLUDED:

- 3 Comprehensive Video Lessons

- Part 1: The Tool That Makes Your Scripts Usable by Everyone — What Player Is and How Is Input Works

- Part 2: Build It — Three-Node Automatic Rotation Script with Is Input Configured

- Part 3: Deploy via Player — Run Live, Share with the Team, Run Forever

- *Week 12 Study Guide PDF — Dynamo Player Complete Reference*

- *Week 13 Task and Assessment (Google Forms)*

- *Week 13 Feedback (Google Form)*

- Lifetime Access to Week 13 Content

- Exclusive WhatsApp Community Support ⭐

✅ KEY BENEFITS:

- Understand what Dynamo Player is and exactly where to find it in Revit

- Know why Player makes any script usable by any team member with zero Dynamo knowledge

- Understand the Is Input setting — how to mark it, how to rename the field, what appears in Player

- Build the three-node Automatic Rotation script: Select Model Elements, FamilyInstance.SetRotation, Number

- Mark the Number node as Is Input and rename it "Rotation Angle (degrees)"

- Deploy the script from Player — select families, type the angle, click Play

- Share the script to a network folder or SharePoint so the whole team always has the latest version

- Know the key facts about SetRotation — it sets the angle, not adds to it, and rotates around the Z-axis

🎯 YOUR LEARNING PATH (WEEK 13):

1️⃣ Understand what Dynamo Player is and where it lives in Revit (View tab)

2️⃣ Understand the gap it closes — scripts usable by people who have never opened Dynamo

3️⃣ Learn the Is Input setting: right-click a node, tick Is Input, rename with a clear label

4️⃣ Build Node 1: Select Model Elements — pick the families to rotate using Ctrl+click

5️⃣ Build Node 2: FamilyInstance.SetRotation — sets every selected family to the exact degree value

6️⃣ Build Node 3: Number (45) — mark as Is Input, rename "Rotation Angle (degrees)"

7️⃣ Save as AdvW13_RotateFamilies.dyn

8️⃣ Open Player from the View tab, set the folder, run the script live

9️⃣ Save the script to a shared folder — team members point Player to that folder

🔟 Build once. Share with everyone. Run forever.

🔥 Twelve weeks of scripts. One tool that makes every one of them usable by your whole team. This week — Dynamo Player!
