RevolvedSurface.IsValidProfileCurve(Frame, Curve)

Public Class

Checks if the input profile curve is valid to create a surface of revolution in the given frame of reference.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB

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

Syntax

public static bool IsValidProfileCurve(
  Frame frameOfReference,
  Curve profileCurve
)

Parameters

frameOfReference Frame

frameOfReference is an orthonormal frame that defines a local coordinate system for the surface of revolution.

• The frame can be “right-handed” or “left-handed”.
• The origin of the frame is the base of point of the axis of revolution.
• The BasisZ of the frame is the direction of the axis.

profileCurve Curve

The profile curve.

Return Value

Boolean
True if the profile curve is valid; False otherwise.

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

---

ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null

---

Remarks

The validity is defined as follows:

• The profile curve is bounded and non-degenerate.
• It is co-planar with the axis of revolution.
• It lies on the xz plane of the frame.
• It lies on the right side of the axis.
• Only the end points of the profile curve can touch the axis.
