Determines whether to create a linked symbol element or not.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.IFC
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 2015.0.0.0 (2015.0.0.0)
Since: 2015

Syntax

C#
public bool CreateLinkInstanceOnly { get; set; }
Visual Basic
Public Property CreateLinkInstanceOnly As Boolean
	Get
	Set
Visual C++
public:
property bool CreateLinkInstanceOnly {
	bool get ();
	void set (bool value);
}

Remarks

If this value is false (default), we will create a linked symbol and instance. If this value is true, then we will re-use an existing linked symbol file and create an instance only. The intention is for CreateLinkInstanceOnly to be true when we are trying to create a new link, when the link already exists in the host file.
