Creates a filled region on a sketch plane in a 3d model family.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 24.0.0.0 (24.0.0.0)
Since: 2023

Syntax

C#
`public static FilledRegion Create( Document document, ElementId typeId, SketchPlane sketchPlane, IList<CurveLoop> boundaries )`

Visual Basic
`Public Shared Function Create ( _ document As Document, _ typeId As ElementId, _ sketchPlane As SketchPlane, _ boundaries As IList(Of CurveLoop) _ ) As FilledRegion`

Visual C++
`public: static FilledRegion^ Create( Document^ document, ElementId^ typeId, SketchPlane^ sketchPlane, IList<CurveLoop^>^ boundaries )`

Parameters

document: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DBDocument
The family document in which to create the filled region.

typeId: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DBElementId
The filled region type Id.

sketchPlane: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DBSketchPlane
The sketch plane for use with the filled region.

boundaries: Type: System.Collections.GenericIListCurveLoop
The filled region boundaries, which will be projected onto the sketch plane.

Return Value

The new filled region.

Remarks

If the sketch plane is currently in use, then a copy of the sketch plane will be created and used. The sketch plane normal must be parallel to the model's X, Y or Z axis. The sketch plane can be a planar face reference to model geometry. The line style of the boundaries will be set to thin lines by default.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
Autodesk.Revit.ExceptionsArgumentException	The document is not a 3d model family. -or- The Id typeId is invalid. -or- Filled regions can't be created in this document or view. -or- The sketch plane is not suitable for model elements. -or- The sketch plane normal is not parallel to the model's X, Y or Z axis. -or- The input curve loops cannot compose a valid boundary, that means: the "curveLoops" collection is empty; or some curve loops intersect with each other; or each curve loop is not closed individually; or each curve loop is not planar; or each curve loop is not in a plane parallel to the sketch plane; or input curves contain at least one helical curve.
