Visual C++

Visual C++
`public: BoundaryConditions^ NewAreaBoundaryConditions( Element^ hostElement, TranslationRotationValue X_Translation, double X_TranslationSpringModulus, TranslationRotationValue Y_Translation, double Y_TranslationSpringModulus, TranslationRotationValue Z_Translation, double Z_TranslationSpringModulus )`

public:
BoundaryConditions^ NewAreaBoundaryConditions(
	Element^ hostElement, 
	TranslationRotationValue X_Translation, 
	double X_TranslationSpringModulus, 
	TranslationRotationValue Y_Translation, 
	double Y_TranslationSpringModulus, 
	TranslationRotationValue Z_Translation, 
	double Z_TranslationSpringModulus
)

Parameters

hostElement: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Element
A Wall, Slab or Slab Foundation to host the boundary conditions.

X_Translation: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure TranslationRotationValue
A value indicating the X axis translation option.

X_TranslationSpringModulus: Type: System Double
Translation Spring Modulus for X axis. Ignored if X_Translation is not "Spring".

Y_Translation: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure TranslationRotationValue
A value indicating the Y axis translation option.

Y_TranslationSpringModulus: Type: System Double
Translation Spring Modulus for Y axis. Ignored if Y_Translation is not "Spring".

Z_Translation: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure TranslationRotationValue
A value indicating the Z axis translation option.

Z_TranslationSpringModulus: Type: System Double
Translation Spring Modulus for Z axis. Ignored if Z_Translation is not "Spring".

Return Value

If successful, NewAreaBoundaryConditions returns an object for the newly created BoundaryConditions with the BoundaryType = 2 - "Area". a null reference ( Nothing in Visual Basic) is returned if the operation fails.

Remarks

This method will only function with the Autodesk Revit Structure application.

Examples

Copy C#

bool CreateAreaConditionWithElement(Wall wall, Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document docCreation)
{
    // Create Area Boundary Conditions using a given Wall and defaulting to fixed in all directions
    BoundaryConditions condition = docCreation.NewAreaBoundaryConditions(wall, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0, 
                                                                               TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0, 
                                                                               TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0);
    return (null != condition);
}

Copy VB.NET

Private Function CreateAreaConditionWithElement(wall As Wall, docCreation As Autodesk.Revit.Creation.Document) As Boolean
    ' Create Area Boundary Conditions using a given Wall and defaulting to fixed in all directions
    Dim condition As BoundaryConditions = docCreation.NewAreaBoundaryConditions(wall, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, 0, TranslationRotationValue.Fixed, _
        0)
    Return (condition IsNot Nothing)
