NewReferencePlane Method

Creates a new instance of ReferencePlane.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.Creation
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 21.0.0.0 (21.1.1.109)

Syntax

C# 
public ReferencePlane NewReferencePlane(
	XYZ bubbleEnd,
	XYZ freeEnd,
	XYZ cutVec,
	View pView
)
Visual Basic 
Public Function NewReferencePlane ( _
	bubbleEnd As XYZ, _
	freeEnd As XYZ, _
	cutVec As XYZ, _
	pView As View _
) As ReferencePlane
Visual C++ 
public:
ReferencePlane^ NewReferencePlane(
	XYZ^ bubbleEnd, 
	XYZ^ freeEnd, 
	XYZ^ cutVec, 
	View^ pView
)

Parameters

bubbleEnd
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
The bubble end applied to reference plane.
freeEnd
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
The free end applied to reference plane.
cutVec
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
The cut vector apply to reference plane, should perpendicular to the vector (bubbleEnd-freeEnd).
pView
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB View
The specific view apply to the Reference plane.

Return Value

The newly created reference plane.

Remarks

The specific view is applied to the Reference plane only for certain view types: Legend DraftingView DrawingSheet

Examples

Copy C# 
// Define data for reference plane creation
XYZ bubbleEnd = new XYZ(1, 0, 0);   // bubble end applied to reference plane
XYZ freeEnd = new XYZ(-5, 0, 0);    // free end applied to reference plane
// Cut vector should be perpendicular to bubbleEnd-freeEnd vector
XYZ cutVec = new XYZ(0, 0, 1);  // cut vector applied to reference plane

// Create the reference plane, applying the active view
ReferencePlane refPlane = document.Create.NewReferencePlane(bubbleEnd, freeEnd, cutVec, document.ActiveView);
Copy VB.NET 
' Define data for reference plane creation
Dim bubbleEnd As New XYZ(1, 0, 0)
' bubble end applied to reference plane
Dim freeEnd As New XYZ(-5, 0, 0)
' free end applied to reference plane
' Cut vector should be perpendicular to bubbleEnd-freeEnd vector
Dim cutVec As New XYZ(0, 0, 1)
' cut vector applied to reference plane
' Create the reference plane, applying the active view
Dim refPlane As ReferencePlane = document.Create.NewReferencePlane(bubbleEnd, freeEnd, cutVec, document.ActiveView)
