Methods

Name

Description

Public Method
Static Member

CreateBlendGeometry(CurveLoop, CurveLoop, ICollection.VertexPair.)

Creates a solid by blending two closed curve loops lying in non-coincident planes.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateBlendGeometry(CurveLoop, CurveLoop, ICollection.VertexPair., SolidOptions)

Creates a solid by blending two closed curve loops lying in non-coincident planes.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateExtrusionGeometry(IList.CurveLoop., XYZ, Double)

Creates a solid by linearly extruding one or more closed coplanar curve loops.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateExtrusionGeometry(IList.CurveLoop., XYZ, Double, SolidOptions)

Creates a solid by linearly extruding one or more closed coplanar curve loops.

Public Method
Static Member
CreateFixedReferenceSweptGeometry(CurveLoop, Int32, Double, IList.CurveLoop., XYZ)

Creates a solid by sweeping one or more closed coplanar curve loops along a path while keeping the profile plane oriented so that a line in the plane that is initially perpendicular to a given fixed direction remains perpendicular as the profile is swept along the path.

Public Method
Static Member
CreateFixedReferenceSweptGeometry(CurveLoop, Int32, Double, IList.CurveLoop., XYZ, SolidOptions)

Creates a solid by sweeping one or more closed coplanar curve loops along a path while keeping the profile plane oriented so that a line in the plane that is initially perpendicular to a given fixed direction remains perpendicular as the profile is swept along the path.

Public Method
Static Member
CreateLoftGeometry

Creates a solid or open shell geometry by lofting between a sequence of curve loops.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateRevolvedGeometry(Frame, IList.CurveLoop., Double, Double)

Creates a solid of revolution by revolving a set of closed curve loops around an axis by a specified angle.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateRevolvedGeometry(Frame, IList.CurveLoop., Double, Double, SolidOptions)

Creates a solid of revolution by revolving a set of closed curve loops around an axis by a specified angle.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateSweptBlendGeometry(Curve, IList.Double., IList.CurveLoop., IList.ICollection.VertexPair..)

Creates a solid by simultaneously sweeping and blending two or more closed planar curve loops along a single curve.

Public Method
Static Member

CreateSweptBlendGeometry(Curve, IList.Double., IList.CurveLoop., IList.ICollection.VertexPair.., SolidOptions)

Creates a solid by simultaneously sweeping and blending two or more closed planar curve loops along a single curve.

Public Method
Static Member
CreateSweptGeometry(CurveLoop, Int32, Double, IList.CurveLoop.)

Creates a solid by sweeping one or more closed coplanar curve loops along a path.

Public Method
Static Member
CreateSweptGeometry(CurveLoop, Int32, Double, IList.CurveLoop., SolidOptions)

Creates a solid by sweeping one or more closed coplanar curve loops along a path.

Remarks

The shapes created by these utilities are not a part of any Revit document, but can be used in conjunction with other geometric utilities from within API applications.
