Creates a new geometric plane object based on a normal vector and an origin.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.Creation
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 2015.0.0.0 (2015.0.0.0)

Syntax

C#
`public Plane NewPlane( XYZ norm, XYZ origin )`

Visual Basic
`Public Function NewPlane ( _ norm As XYZ, _ origin As XYZ _ ) As Plane`

Visual C++
`public: Plane^ NewPlane( XYZ^ norm, XYZ^ origin )`

Parameters

norm: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
Z vector of the plane coordinate system.

origin: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
Origin of the plane coordinate system.

Return Value

A new plane object.

Examples

Copy C#

 // Create a geometry plane in Revit application
XYZ normal = XYZ.BasisZ;    // use basis of the z-axis (0,0,1) for normal vector 
XYZ origin = XYZ.Zero;  // origin is (0,0,0)  
 Plane geomPlane = application.Create.NewPlane(normal, origin);

Copy VB.NET

' Create a geometry plane in Revit application
Dim normal As XYZ = XYZ.BasisZ
' use basis of the z-axis (0,0,1) for normal vector 
Dim origin As XYZ = XYZ.Zero
' origin is (0,0,0)  
Dim geomPlane As Plane = application.Create.NewPlane(normal, origin)
