ViewShapeBuilder.ValidateCurve(Curve)

Public Class

Validates curve to be added to the view-specific shape being constructed. Called by AddCurve() to validate input. Expects a valid view normal to be set prior to the call.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB

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

Syntax

public bool ValidateCurve(
  Curve GCurve
)

Parameters

GCurve Curve

Curve object to be validated.

Return Value

Boolean
True is %GCurve% is acceptable as a part of view-specific shape representation being built.

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null

Remarks

This function may be used to pre-validate the geometry being added to avoid AddCurve() throwing an InvalidArgumentException Validation conditions depend on the type of view for which the shape representation is intended. For plan views, a curve is expected to be planar and non-degenerate (e.g., NOT a circle of zero radius).
