Syntax The FamilySymbolFilter type exposes the following members.
Constructors | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | FamilySymbolFilter | Constructs a new instance of a filter to find all family symbols of the given family. |
Properties | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | FamilyId | The family id. |
| | Inverted | True if the results of the filter are inverted; elements that would normally be accepted by this filter will be rejected, and elements that would normally be rejected will be accepted. (Inherited from ElementFilter ) |
| | IsValidObject | Specifies whether the .NET object represents a valid Revit entity. (Inherited from ElementFilter ) |
Methods | Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| | Dispose | (Inherited from ElementFilter ) |
| | Equals | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object ) |
| | GetHashCode | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object ) |
| | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object ) |
| | PassesFilter(Element) | Applies the filter to a given element. (Inherited from ElementFilter ) |
| | PassesFilter(Document, ElementId) | Applies the filter to a given element. (Inherited from ElementFilter ) |
| | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object ) |
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.
Note that it may be faster to get a list of symbol ids from GetFamilySymbolIds rather than to iterate all of the contents of a document with this filter applied.
