This method marks the beginning of a link instance to be exported.
Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

Parameters
- node LinkNode
Return Value
RenderNodeActionReturn RenderNodeAction.Skip if you wish to skip processing this link instance, or return RenderNodeAction.Proceed otherwise.

/// <summary>
/// This code demonstrates how to process instances of Revit links.
/// </summary>
public RenderNodeAction OnLinkBegin(LinkNode node)
{
// We can get more information about the Revit Link and its type if we need to
ElementId symbolId = node.SymbolId;
RevitLinkType linkType = m_document.GetElement(symbolId) as RevitLinkType;
String linkDocumentName = linkType.Name;
// Typically, an export context has to manage a stack of transformation
// for all nested objects, such as instances, lights, links, etc.
// A combined transformation needs to be applied to the incoming geometry
// (providing all geometry is to be flattened in the resultant format.)
m_TransformationStack.Push(m_TransformationStack.Peek().Multiply(node.GetTransform()));
// We can either skip this link instance or proceed with rendering it
return RenderNodeAction.Proceed;
}
/// <summary>
/// This method marks the end of processing a Revit link
/// </summary>
public void OnLinkEnd(LinkNode node)
{
// Note: This method is invoked even for instances that were skipped.
// If we maintain a transformation stack, we need to remove the latest one from it.
m_TransformationStack.Pop();
