Methods
Name Description
Public method CalculateLengthPerArea Calculates length of the pattern per unit area.
Public method CalculateLinesPerLength Calculates the number of solid lines of the pattern per unit length.
Public method CalculateStrokesPerArea Calculates the number of the segments of the pattern per unit area.
Public method Dispose Releases all resources used by the FillGrid
Public method Equals Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object )
Public method GetHashCode Serves as the default hash function.

Public method GetPointLineZone(UV) Gets the index of fill grid line closest to the input 2d point.
Public method GetPointLineZone(UV, UV ) Gets the index of fill grid line and the point on the grid line nearest to the input point.
Public method GetSegmentDirection Provides the segment direction.
Public method GetSegments Gets the segments of the fill grid.
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object )
Public method IsEqual Check if two fill grids are equal.
Public method SetSegments Sets the segments to the fill grid.
Public method ToString Returns a string that represents the current object.

Remarks
A grid line is described in the two dimensions of a face as follows: angle, origin, shift, offset, segments
  • Angle specifies the direction, in degrees, of the grid line relative to the x-axis.
  • Parallel lines are drawn as specified by Offset and Shift to fill the entire face. Offset defines the distance between parallel lines. Zero Offset is not allowed. Shift moves the pattern of dashes and spaces along the length of each new parallel line. Shift is ignored if the line is solid.
  • The segments defines a repeating pattern of dashes and spaces for the grid line. If it is omitted, the line is solid. Positive numbers define dashes, negative numbers define spaces, and zero specifies a dot. If you begin a pattern with a space, do not alternate dashes and spaces, or do not end with a space, Revit will introduce tiny dashes or spaces to compensate. Revit expands dots and very short dashes into dashes of a minimum size.
