BaseElevation Property

The base elevation of the stairs run.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Architecture
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 24.0.0.0 (24.0.0.0)
Since:  2013

Syntax

C#
public double BaseElevation { get; set; }
Visual Basic
Public Property BaseElevation As Double
	Get
	Set
Visual C++
public:
property double BaseElevation {
	double get ();
	void set (double value);
}

Remarks

The base elevation has following restrictions:
  • The base elevation is relative to the base elevation of the stairs to which the stairs run belongs.
  • When setting this property the value will be rounded automatically to a multiple of the riser height.
  • When setting this property for common run, the run's height will change according to the new base/top elevation. So the value must be less than the top elevation to keep run valid.
  • When setting this property for sketched run, whose height is fixed, the run's top elevation will be adjusted to keep the same run height.
