Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.PointClouds Class: PointCloudFilterFactory

PointCloudFilterFactory.CreateMultiPlaneFilter(IList<Plane>)

Method

Description:
Creates a new point cloud filter based upon planar boundaries.

Remarks:
The filter will check whether a point is located on the "positive" side of each plane, as indicated by the positive direction of the plane normal. Therefore, such filter implicitly defines a volume, which is the intersection of the positive half-spaces corresponding to all the planes. This volume does not have to be closed, but it will always be convex.

Syntax

public static PointCloudFilter CreateMultiPlaneFilter(
	IList<Plane> planes
)

Public Shared Function CreateMultiPlaneFilter ( 
	planes As IList(Of Plane)
) As PointCloudFilter

public:
static PointCloudFilter^ CreateMultiPlaneFilter(
	IList<Plane^>^ planes
)

static member CreateMultiPlaneFilter : 
        planes : IList<Plane> -> PointCloudFilter

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
planes	IList	All planes used for filtering; positive direction of the normal should point inside the volume of interest. Only points on the "positive" side of all planes will pass the filter.

Return Value

Type	Description
PointCloudFilter	Filter object; can be used to get representative set of cloud points passing through the filter.

ArgumentNullException	A non-optional argument was null
