ElementOwnerViewFilter

Class
Description:
A filter used to match elements which are owned by a particular view.
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.

Examples
// Use ElementOwnerView filter to find TextNotes in the active view

// Create an ElementOwnerView filter with id of active view
ElementOwnerViewFilter elementOwnerViewFilter = new ElementOwnerViewFilter(document.ActiveView.Id);

// Apply the filter to the elements in the active document,
// Use shortcut method OfClass() to find TextNotes only
FilteredElementCollector collector = new FilteredElementCollector(document);
ICollection<Element> textNotesOfActiveView =
    collector.WherePasses(elementOwnerViewFilter).OfClass(typeof(TextNote)).ToElements();

// Find TextNotes which are not owned by active view: use an inverted filter to match TextNotes
ElementOwnerViewFilter notOwnedFilter = new ElementOwnerViewFilter(document.ActiveView.Id, true); // inverted filter
collector = new FilteredElementCollector(document);
ICollection<Element> notOwnedByViewFounds =
    collector.WherePasses(notOwnedFilter).OfClass(typeof(TextNote)).ToElements();
