Syntax

public static Plane CreateByOriginAndBasis(
  XYZ origin,
  XYZ basisX,
  XYZ basisY
)

origin XYZ

Plane origin. Expected to lie within the Revit design limits IsWithinLengthLimits(XYZ).

basisX XYZ

First of the two unit vectors that define the plane. Must be orthogonal to the second one.

basisY XYZ

Second of the two unit vectors that define the plane. Must be orthogonal to the first one.

Exception

Condition

The input point lies outside of Revit design limits.

A non-optional argument was null

basisX is not length 1.0. -or- basisY is not length 1.0.

The vectors basisX and basisY are not perpendicular.

The parametric equation of the plane is S(u, v) = origin + u*basisX + v*basisY. The plane’s normal is defined as basisX.Cross(basisY).
