HI everyone, I’m trying to get a list of the Families Size, but I hasn’t been working for a while, below is the error it shows. If anyone can help me on how to solve this, I really need it for my job.

@Danycares92 ,

Hi Andreas, Thanks for your answer.
I don’t have any coding knowledge, so if you can please describe what should I do with this, It would be great.

Thanks again, and sorry for my lack of knowledge.

KR,

@Danycares92 ,

where to start :wink: ?

mb = 1048576.0
kb = 1024.0

# get Schedules
def getSize(p, mb=mb, kb=kb, kbOnly = False):
	sb = FileInfo(p).Length
	if sb < mb or kbOnly:
		return '%.3f KB' % (sb / kb)
	else:
		return '%.3f MB' % (sb / mb)

time_start = time.time()

directory = 'C:/Users/andre/Desktop/Familien'
names = os.listdir(directory)
familyFileNames = [i for i in os.listdir(directory) if i.endswith(".rfa")]
familyPaths = [os.path.join(directory,i) for i in familyFileNames]
stats = [os.stat(i) for i in familyPaths]
sizes = [i.st_size for i in stats]
converted = [int(i) for i in sizes]
kiloBite = [(str(i/1000) + " KB") for i in converted]


OUT = zip(names,kiloBite) #converted)

for p in OUT:
	print(p)

the main part happens in this area… you can paste to chatGPT and ask “please write comments to this code, what it does, do not change the code!”

i can just recomment you do a basic course in Python ( you get by 10€, online with a punch of content). Or learn here www.learnrevitAPI.com. I have only Dynamo background.

…programming is not so hard as it sounds.

@Danycares92 welcome,

taken directly from the Revit API docs

The given file, path or network location could not be found during save.

It means that the temp file save location is inaccessible or that the original family is not accessible.

you could encapsulate the line 113 of the script in a try:except: so that it can bypass the specific families not working.

  1. Open:
    C:\Users\ODP-10981 DC\AppData\Roaming\pyRevit-Master\extensions\pyRevitTools.extension\pyRevit.tab\Analysis.panel\Tools.stack\Inspect.pulldown\ListFamilySizeCreator.pushbutton\ListFamilySizeCreator_script.py

  2. @ line 113

                    try:
                        fam_doc.SaveAs(fam_path, save_as_options)
                    except Exception as e:
                        print("Family cannot be saved in this location: {}".format(fam_path))
  1. report with a screen capture the output windows with the results. If conclusive, I will commit this change.
