Space to Poly
This node returns the floor surface geometry of spaces as polylines and various space parameters.
Whenever you need to extract the floor surface or certain properties (without destroying the space object) to use it in a network or before using a tool like Tiles or Area Verification, this node will come in handy.

Symbol to Group
This node converts referenced symbol to group using the specified conversion options.
OIP controls:
Options
Don't convert subobjects Convert plug-in and symbol subobjects Convert all subobjects Group (*)
Keep group (leaves symbol contents in a group - in addition to the usual grouping by Marionette) Ungroup group (ungroups symbol content, but you get the usual grouping by Marionette)
(*) Information for Marionette aficionados:
Due to the nature of the underlying VectorScript command vs.SymbolToGroup(), simply using this.SetLinksObjects() doesn't work. In order to overwrite the network output properly, the following had to be done:
"Keep group" actually moves all group content into a new group, then deletes the old group "Ungroup group" actually recreates all group content outside the group, then deletes the old group

Delaunay Triangulation
This node returns sets of points forming triangles from a list of vertices for any given 2D polygon.
When running for the first time, the node will ask to install the SciPy library, which is required to use Delaunay triangulation.
To learn more about Delaunay triangulation, have a look at the Wikipedia article.
Created by ComputerWorks GmbH.
Compatibility: Vectorworks 2019 and higher; Python 3.5.0 or higher.
Requirements: SciPy (python library)
Limitations: Holes in polys are ignored. One way to overcome this limitation is to use Get Holes in Poly.

Get Symbol from Folder
This node returns the name of a symbol chosen via selection dialog with previews of the symbols in the current document. If a folder name is given, only its content is shown.
When dealing with a big number of different symbols with long and possibly names difficult to remember, just click the "Select Symbol ..." (OIP) and visually select the symbol within the dialog window.

Polygon Survey
By DomC
A Node which creates Measure Lines in Polygons (Line from every vetex point to every other vertex point).
1. p2p Lines:
2. Perpentidular Lines (Perpentidular Line from every poly vertex on every poly edge):
To sort out needless lines, there are several filters integrated:
1. Double Lines automatically filtered with an epsilon (p2p is not the same as perpenticular if you look all 15 digits)
2. Measure Lines, which are identical with poly edges
3. Measure Lines, which are outside of the polygon
4. Overlapping lines. If two lines are parallel and both points of the smaller lines are on the bigger line, the bigger line is filtered
5. Filter Lines over and lower than min max values
6. An Option, to return a number of length (Return first x values). As example if there are measure lines with the length (1.2, 1.2, 1.25, 1.5,) and the value is 1, two lines with 1.2 will be returned. This value is holding on perpendicular and p2p lines.
Summary:
Turn off Debug options like "Show Edge", "show Outside Poly", Filter small length (niches) and set "Return first x values" on 1 or 2 to get optimal results. So a normal result will look like this:
Attached there are three examples. An Example with spaces, An examples just with polys and an example as PlugIn. PlugIn is good for playing with the options to see changes prompt.

DomC Nodes
By DomC
Attached a vwx with nodes. Some of them already shared as separate files. Also the list is not complete, not perfect and has no warranty of being up to date. Also some nodes may be outdated, obsolet or buggy.
Take note:
1. I tried to track the nodes with an addition record format
2. Marionette Nodes are linked to a record format, this record format contains descreption and Other infos from to the node.
3. Also this Record contains a rating of the node (internal rating for me) like is this node hard to make, will it be useful for many users or just for one special case etc.
4. The Record can be linked manually to a node and then the node's Data can be written by a script. Ration Infos logically has to be attached manually
5. On the document is a worksheet with all nodes listed
The Info below is originally from the nodes (included original misspelling etc :-)

Automated Layout
By DomC
Hi
This Examples shows, how to automatically create sheet layers and viewports from objects of the design layers. In this example, a sheet layer will be created for every exhibition place available on the design layer. It creates a 1:20 close-up from the specific exhibitor's place and an overview plan with a marker of the exhibitors place.
This Network-Template could be used whenever you want to create automatically documentations out of your drawing. As Example:
- Put a Viewport of every Space Object in your drawing on SheetLayers
- Put Viewports from Building Elements close-ups (Windows, Doors etc.) on sheet layers
Also this Network contains some very powerful custom nodes:
1. Enhances BBox, Enhanced Rectangle, PutByRefPoint those are just to save time for calculating width, length and ref point of objects
2. Function Two (like standard function node with two inputs), SetParent
(1. and 2. Already available on this forum)
3. CreateLayer
4. CreateViewport
5. VP Layer Visibility
6. Add VP Ann (Annotations in Viewport)
7. Nodes for getting Marionette OIP Data which is not possible with "Get Record Field"

Rectangle Line Pattern
By DomC
A Rectangle Line Pattern with a random option.
Also the files show, hot how to project on a NURBS Surface. This 3D Projection contains two additional custom nodes.
1. GetZatXY (Also used in many other examples on the community board)
2. GetZamong Pt. Not so easy to understand. This nodes calculates the z value of a 2D Point between two 3D Points without trigonometry (faster).

If you need Worksheet-like Numbering like A, B, C .... AA, AB ..... AAA .... This node offers you an easy solution.
There are two nodes for both directions.
Limitations:
1. Input from special characters etc. will result in wrong values or errors.

Point Rectangle
By DomC
This node creates optional a rectangle and returns the corner points of that rectangle.
Often there is a need of a rectangle and the corner points. If the rectangle is rotated, it can be a cramp to calculate the corner points. I hope this node can help to simplify marionette workflows.

Create Design or Sheet Layer
By DomC
This Node creates a new layer and keep the active layer the active one.
It has a popup witch allows to choose sheet or design layer. It returns a handle to the new layer or a handle to an existing layer with the same name.
Like ever .. with not warranty try first in an empty file and be careful creating thousands of layers or layers with the same name as other objects in the drawing.

Move Symbol in Folder or create Folder
By DomC
Insert Symbol in Folder Node:
1. Move the Symbol with the input name in the folder with the input folder name
2. If folder do not exists it will be created. If no symbol name is inputted, the folder created also
3. If the folder name is taken by another object, the folder will not be created

Enhanced Rectangle
By DomC
What is the distance of the middle top point to the insertion Point (left bottom), if your rectangle has 175.5° degrees? Not so easy calculate the move vector or the rotation for that. This node can help you to use your time for other challenges. You can place your rectangles with every standard reference Point in any angle in degrees.

Get and Set Marionette OIP Parameter
By DomC
With this two nodes, we are able to set or get the parameter of an Marionette PIO or wrapper.
Can be used to access the values in the OIP by script or another Marionette.
The Screenshot shows an example in which every of those pillar is an own marionette PIO (Script as symbol to instance the PIO).
Note:
It is not possible to write the parameters via Worksheet. Also it is not possible to read Marionette Object parameters directly into a worksheet. To read Marionette object parameters in a worksheet I recommend to write data into a record format and list those values in a worksheet.
