Dynamo Hierarchy: Rhythm>Revit>Elements>Dimension>Dimension.NumberOfSegments
Description:
This will return the number of segments a dimension has. If it is a single dimension, this will return zero.
Inputs:
dimension : Element
Outputs:
numberOfSegments : int
INPUTS
filePath : string[] (optional)
refresh : bool
close : bool
OUTPUTS
report[][] : string[][]
CADLinks[] : ImportInstance[]
CADImports[] : ImportInstance[]
DESCRIPTION
Generates a report of all CAD links and imports in the active Revit document. The node provides detailed information on: instance name, link status, view specific, owner view id, workset name, file path and host level. Linked and Imported CAD links are output into lists to aid with CAD file management in Revit.
To report the active Revit document, leave the filePath input unconnected. To report any external Revit file or Family silently (without opening) simply input its file path using an out-of-the-box File Path node.

INPUTS
sheets : Sheet[]
run : bool
duplicateWithViews : bool
duplicateOption : int
suffix : string
prefix : string
OUTPUTS
report[] : string[]
Sheet[] : Sheet[]
DESCRIPTION
Duplicate selected Sheets with options to specify the duplication of placed Views and the method of duplication. The node will identify illegal characters in View names (such as {3D} for example) and clean them automatically to circumvent unexpected failures.
The algorithm which controls the duplicate View behaviour has been designed so that dependent Views are duplicated from a newly created parent View to maintain the existing View structure. The node will also check if the parent View exists on subsequent runs to handle situations where any of its other dependent Views need to be duplicated.
The report output provides a detailed log of any Sheets that fail to duplicate, any Views that fail to duplicate or cant be placed, and View names cleaned of illegal characters.

USER GUIDE
I have just added two nodes to the Data-Shapes package:
The names of the nodes are pretty explicit: they gather elements in linked documents visible in a host view.
GetLinkedElements.ByHostView uses the visibility settings of the host view when collecting the linked elements, whereas GetLinkedElements.ByHostViewAndCategory allows you to set the categories you’re interested in collecting.
Both nodes can be found in Data-Shapes Package (version 2017.02.20).
I recently sliced off a few nodes focused on package management and have placed them in a new package called RollingPin.
Current Node List:
Check DYF folder for Dependencies in Package Folders
Get DYF Dependencies for One DYF File
Get DYF Dependencies through Recursion v1
List Nested Node Nicknames for Folder
List Nodes in DYFs for an Entire Folder
Node Names From Directory String
Package Folder Details
Report Dynamo Package Details by Folder
Show Dependency Ids for one DYF
Show Dependency Nodes for one DYF
Summary and Node Search for a Folder of DYFs
With Revit 2017 Update 1, the Dynamo Player is now available to run DYN files from a monitored folder directly, without opening the Dynamo application.

This node will take a flat Surface, and create a ‘Slatted Facade’ from said surface.
You can customise the Facade Thickness, Tool Amount, Slat Amount and Slat Thickness.
Note: This node includes randomisation variables, so every time you change some of the input values the entire geometry will change. It will also currently only work on vertical flat surfaces.
This node will take a series of Model Lines and create a Cosine based tower off aforementioned lines.
You can customise the Resolution, Amplitude and Period.
This node will take a series of close model lines and output a points list based on a chosen resolution (Default resolution is 20). It will output the information in both a Single Point list and a Grouped Point list based on the X-Coordinates of each point.
