Since: 2014

Syntax

C# 
public static BeamSystem Create(
	Document document,
	IList<Curve> profile,
	SketchPlane sketchPlane,
	int curveIndexForDirection
)
Visual Basic 
Public Shared Function Create ( _
	document As Document, _
	profile As IList(Of Curve), _
	sketchPlane As SketchPlane, _
	curveIndexForDirection As Integer _
) As BeamSystem
Visual C++ 
public:
static BeamSystem^ Create(
	Document^ document, 
	IList<Curve^>^ profile, 
	SketchPlane^ sketchPlane, 
	int curveIndexForDirection
)

Parameters

document
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Document
The document in which the new BeamSystem is created.
profile
Type: System.Collections.Generic IList Curve
The profile of the BeamSystem.
sketchPlane
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB SketchPlane
The work-plane for the BeamSystem.
curveIndexForDirection
Type: System Int32
Index of the curve in the profile to be used as direction. '0' means the default direction-to use the first curve in profile. The curve from the profile to be used as direction must be a Line.

Return Value

If successful, a new BeamSystem object will be returned.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException SketchPlane is not valid for BeamSystem creation. -or- The input profile contains at least one helical curve and is not supported for this operation. -or- The profile curves must be in the sketch plane. -or- The curve index must be valid and the curve to be used as direction must be a Line.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ModificationForbiddenException The document is in failure mode: an operation has failed, and Revit requires the user to either cancel the operation or fix the problem (usually by deleting certain elements). -or- The document is being loaded, or is in the midst of another sensitive process.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ModificationOutsideTransactionException The document has no open transaction.
