SetConstraints Method


Rebar Shape Definition By Arc Set Constraints Method

Assign a new list of constraints to this definition.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax
public void SetConstraints(
	IList<RebarShapeConstraint> constraints
)

Parameters

constraints IList RebarShapeConstraint
A new list of constraints.
Exceptions
Exception Condition
ArgumentException One or more of the constraints is of a type not supported for this definition. -or- One or more of the constraints refers to a parameter that has not been added yet.
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Remarks
Any existing constraints are discarded. The new constraints replace them. Any parameters driving the constraints must already be added with AddParameter().

If the Type is Arc or LappedCircle, the allowable constraint types are:

  • RebarShapeConstraintArcLength
  • RebarShapeConstraintRadius
  • RebarShapeConstraintDiameter
  • RebarShapeConstraintCircumference
  • RebarShapeConstraintSagittaLength
  • RebarShapeConstraintChordLength
At least two independent constraints must be specified. Overconstraining is supported.

If the Type is Spiral, the allowable constraints are:

  • RebarShapeConstraintRadius
  • RebarShapeConstraintDiameter
  • RebarShapeConstraintCircumference
At least one constraint must be specified.
