Ceiling.Create(Document, IList<CurveLoop>, ElementId, ElementId)

Description:
Creates a new instance of ceiling within the project.
Remarks:
To validate curve loop profile use BoundaryValidation.
Overloads (2):
Create
Create(Document,IList[CurveLoop],ElementId,ElementId)
Create(Document,IList[CurveLoop],ElementId,ElementId,Line,Double) 

public static Ceiling Create(
	Document document,
	IList<CurveLoop> curveLoops,
	ElementId ceilingTypeId,
	ElementId levelId
)

  • Document
    document
    The document in which the new ceiling is created.
  • IList<CurveLoop>
    curveLoops
    An array of planar curve loops that represent the profile of the ceiling.
  • ElementId
    ceilingTypeId
    Id of the ceiling type to be used by the new ceiling. If InvalidElementId is passed, the default type will be used.
  • ElementId
    levelId
    Id of the level on which the ceiling is to be placed.
Return Value Ceiling If successful a new ceiling object within the project.

  • ArgumentException
    The ElementId levelId is not a Level. -or- The ElementId ceilingTypeId does not correspond to a CeilingType. -or- The input curve loops cannot compose a valid boundary, that means: the "curveLoops" collection is empty; or some curve loops intersect with each other; or each curve loop is not closed individually; or each curve loop is not planar; or each curve loop is not in a plane parallel to the horizontal(XY) plane; or input curves contain at least one helical curve. -or- Input curves build invalid sketch. -or- Failed to create curve elements.
  • ArgumentNullException
    A non-optional argument was null
  • InvalidOperationException
    Cannot generate a sketch. -or- Failed to create new element.
  • ModificationForbiddenException
    The document is in failure mode: an operation has failed, and Revit requires the user to either cancel the operation or fix the problem (usually by deleting certain elements). -or- The document is being loaded, or is in the midst of another sensitive process.
  • ModificationOutsideTransactionException
    The document has no open transaction.
