FabricationPart.AlignPartByInsertionPointAndCutInToStraight

Method

Description:
Align the part by its insertion point to a point and rotation on a straight. This will automatically size and connect the part being cut into, if possible.

Syntax

public static bool AlignPartByInsertionPointAndCutInToStraight(
	Document document,
	ElementId straightId,
	ElementId partId,
	XYZ position,
	double rotation,
	double slope,
	bool flip
)

Public Shared Function AlignPartByInsertionPointAndCutInToStraight ( 
	document As Document,
	straightId As ElementId,
	partId As ElementId,
	position As XYZ,
	rotation As Double,
	slope As Double,
	flip As Boolean
) As Boolean

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
document	Document	The document.
straightId	ElementId	The element identifier of the straight to be cut in to.
partId	ElementId	The element identifier of the part to align and cut in with.
position	XYZ	The position to move the parts insertion point to.
rotation	Double	The rotation in radians.
slope	Double	The slope value to flex to match if possible in fractional units (eg.1/50). Positive values are up, negative are down. Slopes can only be applied to fittings, whilst straights will inherit the slope from the piece it is connecting to.
flip	Boolean	Flip the part to allow for flow direction.

Return Value

Type	Description
Boolean	True if the alignment succeeds, false otherwise.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentException	The element is not a fabrication part. -or- Not all of the fabrication part's connectors are open. -or- The part is not a straight. -or- The fabrication parts do not have matching domain types. -or- The position is not on the straight.
ArgumentNullException	A non-optional argument was null
InvalidOperationException	Failed to align the part to the straight to cut in to.
