RebarShapeDefinitionBySegments.AddListeningDimensionSegmentToSegment

Public Class

Specify a dimension perpendicular to two fixed-direction segments, measured by a read-only parameter.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure

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

Syntax

public void AddListeningDimensionSegmentToSegment(
  ElementId paramId,
  double constraintDirCoordX,
  double constraintDirCoordY,
  int iSegment0,
  int iSegment1
)

Parameters

paramId ElementId

Id of a parameter to report the length of the dimension. The parameter will be read-only on Rebar instances.

constraintDirCoordXDouble

The x-coordinate of a 2D vector specifying the constraint direction.

constraintDirCoordYDouble

The y-coordinate of a 2D vector specifying the constraint direction.

iSegment0Int32

Index of the first segment (0 to NumberOfSegments - 1).

iSegment1Int32

Index of the second segment (0 to NumberOfSegments - 1).

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

ArgumentException

paramId is not the id of a shared parameter in the current document, or its unit type is not UT_Reinforcement_Length or UT_Angle. -or- The length of the vector (constraintDirCoordX, constraintDirCoordY) is too close to zero. -or- iSegment0 is not between 0 and NumberOfSegments. -or- iSegment1 is not between 0 and NumberOfSegments. -or- Edge iSegment0 has a variable angle; it must have a fixed angle perpendicular to (constraintDirCoordX, constraintDirCoordY). -or- Edge iSegment1 has a variable angle; it must have a fixed angle perpendicular to (constraintDirCoordX, constraintDirCoordY).

ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null

Remarks

RebarShapeDefinitionBySegments supports driving (read-write) dimensions only when they are associated with a single segment. Non-driving dimensions can involve multiple segments.
