Plane.Create

Public Class

Creates a Plane object defined by a local frame of reference.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB

Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

Syntax

public static Plane Create(
  Frame frameOfReference
)

Parameters

frameOfReference Frame

frameOfReference is an orthonormal frame that defines a local coordinate system for the plane being constructed.

  • Frame.Origin is a point on plane.
  • Frame.BasisZ defines the plane’s normal, while Frame.BasisX and Frame.BasisY are orthogonal to the normal.
  • The frame may be either left-handed or right-handed (see Frame.IsRightHanded).

Return Value

Plane

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

ArgumentException

This Frame object may not be used as a local frame of reference.

ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null

Remarks

The parametric equation of the plane is S(u, v) = Frame.Origin + u*Frame.BasisX + v*Frame.BasisY. Frame.BasisZ defines the plane’s normal.
