Parameters

datumEnd
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB DatumEnds
Specifies one end of the curve representing the datum plane in the view.
view
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB View
The view in which to set the datum extent settings.
extentMode

The DatumExtentType.

Remarks

In a particular view, the datum plane is represented by a curve and the two ends of the curve may have different DatumExtentTypes in that view. If the value is changed from DatumExtentType::Model to DatumExtentType::ViewSpecific, then the view specific extents will be identical to the model extent until modified.

Exceptions

Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException The datum plane cannot be visible in the view.
