NewPointOnPlane Method

Construct a PointOnPlane object which is used to define the placement of a ReferencePoint from its property values.

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

Syntax

C# 
public PointOnPlane NewPointOnPlane(
	Reference planeReference,
	UV position,
	UV xvec,
	double offset
)
Visual Basic 
Public Function NewPointOnPlane ( _
	planeReference As Reference, _
	position As UV, _
	xvec As UV, _
	offset As Double _
) As PointOnPlane
Visual C++ 
public:
PointOnPlane^ NewPointOnPlane(
	Reference^ planeReference, 
	UV^ position, 
	UV^ xvec, 
	double offset
)

Parameters

planeReference
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Reference
A reference to some plane in the document. (Note: the reference must satisfy IsValidPlaneReference(), but this is not checked until this PointOnPlane object is assigned to a ReferencePoint.)
position
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB UV
Coordinates of the point's projection onto the plane; see the Position property.
xvec
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB UV
The direction of the point's X-coordinate vector in the plane's coordinates; see the XVec property. Optional; default value is (1, 0).
offset
Type: System Double
Signed offset from the plane; see the Offset property.

Return Value

A new PointOnPlane object with 2-dimensional Position, XVec, and Offset properties set to match the given 3-dimensional arguments.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException Thrown when the input argument planeReference or position or xvec is a null reference ( Nothing in Visual Basic) or offset is not a valid double value.
