AnalyticalSurfaceBase.SetOuterContour

Public Class

Sets the Curve Loop that defines the geometry of the Analytical Surface element.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure

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

Syntax

public void SetOuterContour(
  CurveLoop outerContour
)

Parameters

outerContour CurveLoop

New Curve Loop for the Analytical Surface element.

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

---

ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null

---

Remarks

Curve Loop must be planar and not self-intersecting.

Example

using (Transaction transaction = new Transaction(document, "Edit Analytical Panel outer contour"))
{
   transaction.Start();

   //create a new curve loop
   CurveLoop profileloop = new CurveLoop();
   profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(
      new XYZ(0, 0, 0), new XYZ(5, 0, 0)));
   profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(
      new XYZ(5, 0, 0), new XYZ(5, 5, 0)));
   profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(
      new XYZ(5, 5, 0), new XYZ(-2, 5, 0)));
   profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(
      new XYZ(-2, 5, 0), new XYZ(0, 0, 0)));

   //Sets the new contour for analytical panel
   analyticalPanel.SetOuterContour(profileloop);

   transaction.Commit();
}
}

VB

Using transaction As Transaction = New Transaction(document, "Edit Analytical Panel outer contour")
    transaction.Start()

    'create a new curve loop
    Dim profileloop As CurveLoop = New CurveLoop()
    profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(New XYZ(0, 0, 0), New XYZ(5, 0, 0)))
    profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(New XYZ(5, 0, 0), New XYZ(5, 5, 0)))
    profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(New XYZ(5, 5, 0), New XYZ(-2, 5, 0)))
    profileloop.Append(Line.CreateBound(New XYZ(-2, 5, 0), New XYZ(0, 0, 0)))

    'Sets the new contour for analytical panel
    analyticalPanel.SetOuterContour(profileloop)
    transaction.Commit()
