PartUtils.GetSplittingCurves(Document, ElementId, Plane)

Method

Description:
Identifies the curves that were used to create the part and the plane in which they reside.

Syntax

public static IList<Curve> GetSplittingCurves(
	Document document,
	ElementId partId,
	out Plane sketchPlane
)

Public Shared Function GetSplittingCurves ( 
	document As Document,
	partId As ElementId,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef sketchPlane As Plane
) As IList(Of Curve)

public:
static IList<Curve^>^ GetSplittingCurves(
	Document^ document, 
	ElementId^ partId, 
	[OutAttribute] Plane^% sketchPlane
)

   if(divisionCurves.Count == 0)
      message.AppendLine("Part is not divided.");
   else

      message.AppendLine("The dividers are : ");
      if(divisionCurves.Count > 0)
         message.AppendLine(divisionCurves.Count.ToString() + " division curves");
   }

   TaskDialog.Show("Revit", message.ToString());

sketchPlane	Plane	The plane in which the division curves were sketched.

Return Value

Type	Description
IList	The curves that created the part. Empty if partId is not a part or Part is not divided.
