ElementOwnerViewFilter Class

A filter used to match elements which are owned by a particular view.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 21.0.0.0 (21.1.1.109)

Syntax

C# 
public class ElementOwnerViewFilter : ElementQuickFilter
Visual Basic 
Public Class ElementOwnerViewFilter _
	Inherits ElementQuickFilter
Visual C++ 
public ref class ElementOwnerViewFilter : public ElementQuickFilter

Remarks

This filter is a quick filter. Quick filters operate only on the ElementRecord, a low-memory class which has a limited interface to read element properties. Elements which are rejected by a quick filter will not be expanded in memory.

Examples

Copy C# 
// Use ElementOwnerView filter to find TextNotes in the active view

// Create an ElementOwnerView filter with id of active view
ElementOwnerViewFilter elementOwnerViewFilter = new ElementOwnerViewFilter(document.ActiveView.Id);

// Apply the filter to the elements in the active document,
// Use shortcut method OfClass() to find TextNotes only
FilteredElementCollector collector = new FilteredElementCollector(document);
ICollection<Element> textNotesOfActiveView =
    collector.WherePasses(elementOwnerViewFilter).OfClass(typeof(TextNote)).ToElements();

// Find TextNotes which are not owned by active view: use an inverted filter to match TextNotes
ElementOwnerViewFilter notOwnedFilter = new ElementOwnerViewFilter(document.ActiveView.Id, true); // inverted filter
collector = new FilteredElementCollector(document);
ICollection<Element> notOwnedByViewFounds =
    collector.WherePasses(notOwnedFilter).OfClass(typeof(TextNote)).ToElements();
Copy VB.NET 
' Use ElementOwnerView filter to find TextNotes in the active view


' Create an ElementOwnerView filter with id of active view
Dim elementOwnerViewFilter As New ElementOwnerViewFilter(document.ActiveView.Id)

' Apply the filter to the elements in the active document,
' Use shortcut method OfClass() to find TextNotes only
Dim collector As New FilteredElementCollector(document)
Dim textNotesOfActiveView As ICollection(Of Element) = collector.WherePasses(elementOwnerViewFilter).OfClass(GetType(TextNote)).ToElements()

' Find TextNotes which are not owned by active view: use an inverted filter to match TextNotes
Dim notOwnedFilter As New ElementOwnerViewFilter(document.ActiveView.Id, True)
' inverted filter
collector = New FilteredElementCollector(document)
Dim notOwnedByViewFounds As ICollection(Of Element) = collector.WherePasses(notOwnedFilter).OfClass(GetType(TextNote)).ToElements()
