Visual C++
`public: static FlexDuct^ Create( Document^ document, ElementId^ systemTypeId, ElementId^ ductTypeId, ElementId^ levelId, XYZ^ startTangent, XYZ^ endTangent, IList<XYZ^>^ points )`

Parameters

document: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB Document
The document.

systemTypeId: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ElementId
The id of the HVAC system type.

ductTypeId: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ElementId
The id of the flexible duct.

levelId: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB ElementId
The level id for the flexible duct.

startTangent: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
The tangent vector at the start of the curve. The invalid or zero vector is ignored.

endTangent: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB XYZ
The tangent vector at the end of the curve. The invalid or zero vector is ignored.

points: Type: System.Collections.Generic IList XYZ
The point array indicating the path of the flexible duct, including the end point.

Return Value

If creation was successful then a new flexible duct is returned, otherwise an exception with failure information will be thrown.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException	The systemTypeId is not valid HVAC system type. -or- The type ductTypeId is not valid flexible duct type. -or- The ElementId levelId is not a Level. -or- The valid number of points is less than two. In order to create a flex curve, at least two points are required. Note the duplicate points don't take into account.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException	A non-optional argument was null
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions DisabledDisciplineException	None of the following disciplines is enabled: Mechanical Electrical Piping.
