Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.Creation
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 26.4.0.0 (26.4.0.0)

Syntax

C#

public ReferencePlane NewReferencePlane(
	XYZ bubbleEnd,
	XYZ freeEnd,
	XYZ cutVec,
	View pView
)

Parameters

bubbleEnd  XYZ

The bubble end applied to reference plane.

freeEnd  XYZ

The free end applied to reference plane.

cutVec  XYZ

The cut vector apply to reference plane, should perpendicular to the vector (bubbleEnd-freeEnd).

pView  View

The specific view apply to the Reference plane.

Return Value

ReferencePlane
The newly created reference plane.

Remarks

The specific view is applied to the Reference plane only for certain view types: LegendDraftingViewDrawingSheet

Example

C#

// Define data for reference plane creation
XYZ bubbleEnd = new XYZ(1, 0, 0);   // bubble end applied to reference plane
XYZ freeEnd = new XYZ(-5, 0, 0);    // free end applied to reference plane
// Cut vector should be perpendicular to bubbleEnd-freeEnd vector
XYZ cutVec = new XYZ(0, 0, 1);  // cut vector applied to reference plane

// Create the reference plane, applying the active view
ReferencePlane refPlane = document.Create.NewReferencePlane(bubbleEnd, freeEnd, cutVec, document.ActiveView);

VB

' Define data for reference plane creation
Dim bubbleEnd As New XYZ(1, 0, 0)
' bubble end applied to reference plane
Dim freeEnd As New XYZ(-5, 0, 0)
' free end applied to reference plane
' Cut vector should be perpendicular to bubbleEnd-freeEnd vector
Dim cutVec As New XYZ(0, 0, 1)
' cut vector applied to reference plane
' Create the reference plane, applying the active view
Dim refPlane As ReferencePlane = document.Create.NewReferencePlane(bubbleEnd, freeEnd, cutVec, document.ActiveView)
