CanLabelDimension Method

Global Parameter Can Label Dimension Method

Tests whether a dimension can be labeled by the global parameter.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax 
public bool CanLabelDimension(
	ElementId dimensionId
)

Parameters

dimensionId ElementId
Id of a dimension element.

Return Value

Boolean
True of the input dimension can be labeled by this global parameter; False oterwise.
Exceptions
Exception Condition
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Remarks
Possible causes include a dimension that cannot be labeled at all, or it is of other than Linear or Angular type, or does not have the appropriate labeling parameter. Another reason for this method returning False is that the data type of this global parameter is not suitable for labeling (i.e. it contains neither Length nor Angle value), or the parameter is reporting and the dimension has more than one segment.
