I am excited to announce that with this release a new section to the package called Pointclouds!

This new section of the package allows interaction with graphics overrides, scan/region visibility, locations/transforms and point extraction.

I have been learning fast while developing these nodes, and have really enjoyed increasing my understanding of how Python can communicate with the Revit API.

IMPORTANT: This will be the last release I am undertaking for the Dynamo 1.3 version, and will be migrating my package to Dynamo 2.0 shortly.
