Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on creating a study using Dynamo with a sample file named dt_generativeToolkit_PackingRectangles_BAF.dyn.

What did you expect to see?

However, I encountered an issue regarding the creation of the Dependencies folder required by the Generative Design Tools extension in Dynamo. (https://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2022/ENU/?guid=GUID-73EEB3D7-5729-447A-8A9B-EC1E7F48B679)

What did you see instead?

Despite having installed the Generative Design package within Dynamo, I couldn't locate the extension mentioned in the documentation that facilitates the creation of this folder or any button which will allow me to create it.
I configured the path where my .dyn file is but given that I don't have the dependencies folder, in the Create Study dialog there no study type inside.

What packages or external references (if any) were used?

@amelnait FYI: when you save a Generative Design ("GD") Dynamo graph in Dynamo for Revit ("D4R") the dependencies folder is created. This is the "happy path" functionality. Please also see https://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2022/ENU/?guid=GUID-73EEB3D7-5729-447A-8A9B-EC1E7F48B679

Thank you for your answer.

I created a graph dynamo and try to use generative design extension in dynamo for revit but when I follow the documentation (https://www.generativedesign.org/03-hello-gd-for-revit/03-02_setting-up-a-graph-for-gd-for-revit), the Export for Generative Design option is missing for graph.

I find this article (https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Export-for-Generative-Design-option-is-missing-for-graph-opened-in-Dynamo.html) but even when I open a new graph the button is missing.

I don't know if it is a problem of revit (2023 version) or dynamo verison. (I tried with only dynamo and with dynamo inside revit, same results).
