Syntax
The LocationPoint type exposes the following members.
Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
IsReadOnly |
Identifies if the object is read-only or modifiable.
(Inherited from APIObject ) |
|
|
Point | The physical location of the element. |
|
|
Rotation | The angle of rotation around the insertion point, in radians. |
Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
Dispose |
Causes the object to release immediately any resources it may be utilizing.
(Inherited from APIObject ) |
|
|
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 ) |
|
|
Move |
Move the element within the project by a specified vector.
(Inherited from Location ) |
|
|
Rotate |
Rotate the element within the project by a specified angle around a given axis.
(Inherited from Location ) |
|
|
ToString |
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object ) |
Remarks
The location point objects adds additional functionality to its base location object
class. This includes setting the elements location to a specific point and retrieving its
rotation around its insertion point. Inplace families do not have a single insertion point and therefore do not have meaningful LocationPoint data.
Example
C#
void LocationInformation(LocationPoint position)
{
String prompt = "The selected column location information:";
prompt += "\nPoint: (" + position.Point.X + ", "
+ position.Point.Y + ", " + position.Point.Z + ")";
prompt += "\nRotation: " + position.Rotation;
TaskDialog.Show("Revit",prompt);
}
bool LocationRotate(Autodesk.Revit.ApplicationServices.Application application, Autodesk.Revit.DB.Element element)
{
bool rotated = false;
LocationPoint location = element.Location as LocationPoint;
if (null != location)
{
XYZ aa = location.Point;
XYZ cc = new XYZ(aa.X, aa.Y, aa.Z + 10);
Line axis = Line.CreateBound(aa,cc);
rotated = location.Rotate(axis, Math.PI / 2.0);
}
return rotated;
