Hey, it’s Michael from ArchSmarter, |
I hope you’re doing well and staying healthy. Just a quick note that I’m hosting another Office Hours today at 3 pm EST. This will be a low-key, Q&A type session on all things Dynamo. I’m going to cover tips for building a Dynamo library, managing Dynamo packages, measuring non-orthogonal rooms, using conditional statements with unequal lists and a bunch more. I will show some examples and leave plenty of time for questions. My goal is to show up, share some guidance and answer questions. Just click the link below to register for the workshop.
