Parameters

doc
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Document
The document.
straightId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ElementId
Id of the straight to be cut in.
fittingId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ElementId
Id of the fitting to cut in.
position
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
The position to cut in the straight.
fittingConn
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Connector
The connector of the fitting to align with the primary connector of the straight part.
axisRotation
Type: System Double
Rotation around the direction of connection - angle between width vectors in radians.

Return Value

True if cuts in successfully.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException For rectangular and oval parts the axis rotation must be a multiple of PI/2. -or- fittingConn is not a connector of the fitting. -or- fittingConn is not valid, it is not within a pair connector for cutting in.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was NULL
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions InvalidOperationException Failed to align fitting to the straight to cut in. -or- There is no enough room in the run for cut in.
