Syntax

C# 
public void ShowAttachedDetailGroups(
	View view,
	ElementId detailGroupTypeId
)
Visual Basic 
Public Sub ShowAttachedDetailGroups ( _
	view As View, _
	detailGroupTypeId As ElementId _
)
Visual C++ 
public:
void ShowAttachedDetailGroups(
	View^ view,

Parameters

view
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB View
The view that the attached detail groups must be compatible with.
detailGroupTypeId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ElementId
Only attached detail groups of this type will be shown.

Remarks

Currently, perpendicular elevation views (for example, North and East views) are considered compatible when deciding whether or not to allow a detail group to be displayed in a view. The show operation may generate an error (FailureMessage) based on id if the orientation of the annotations do not match the orientation of the target view (for example, the failure definition DimensionPerpendicularToView). To prevent displaying detail groups in the wrong view, you can check the OwnerViewId of a detail group to make sure it matches the view in which you are trying to display it.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException The attached detail group detailGroupTypeId does not match the input view's orientation.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was NULL
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions InvalidOperationException The input group is not a model group and can therefore not have attached detail groups. -or- This exception is thrown if the input attached detail group cannot be found in the current document.
