Parameters

aDoc
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Document
The document.
hostElement
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Element
The element that will host the FabricArea. The host can be either a Structural Floor or Structural Wall.
curveLoops
Type: System.Collections.Generic IList CurveLoop
An array of curves that will define the outline of the FabricArea. This includes curves defining openings in the interior of the area.
majorDirection
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
A vector to define the major direction of the FabricArea.
majorDirectionOrigin
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
An origin point of the major direction line

Return Value

The newly created FabricArea.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException Not all curveLoops in curveLoops are closed and continuous. -or- Not all curveLoops in curveLoops are in the same plane. -or- curveLoops should only contain lines or arcs. -or- The document aDoc does not contain the element hostElement -or- the host Element is not a valid host for Area Reinforcement, Path Reinforcement, Fabric Area or Fabric Sheet.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was NULL
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentOutOfRangeException majorDirection has zero length.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions DisabledDisciplineException None of the following disciplines is enabled: Structural.
