Syntax

C#
public void SetShape(
	IList<GeometryObject> pGeomArr,
	DirectShapeTargetViewType viewType
)
Visual Basic
Public Sub SetShape ( _
	pGeomArr As IList(Of GeometryObject), _
	viewType As DirectShapeTargetViewType _
)
Visual C++
public:
void SetShape(
	IList<GeometryObject^>^ pGeomArr, 
	DirectShapeTargetViewType viewType
)

Parameters

pGeomArr
Type: System.Collections.Generic IList GeometryObject
Shape of this object expressed as a collection of GeometryObjects. For viewType = DirectShapeTargetViewType::Default, the supported types of GeometryObjects are: Solid, Mesh, GeometryInstance, Point and Curve. For viewType = DirectShapeTargetViewType::Plan, the supported types of GeometryObjects are: Point and Curve.
viewType
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB DirectShapeTargetViewType
Optional: set a view-specific shape representation that will be used in views of that type only. Passing DirectShapeTargetViewType::Default as view type will cause the default shape to be set.

Exceptions

Exception Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentException At least one member of pGeomArr does not satisfy DirectShape validation criteria.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions ArgumentOutOfRangeException A value passed for an enumeration argument is not a member of that enumeration
