The VisibleInViewFilter type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Dispose	(Inherited from ElementFilter)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)

Remarks

This filter is a quick filter. Quick filters operate only on the ElementRecord, a low-memory class which has a limited interface to read element properties. Elements which are rejected by a quick filter will not be expanded in memory. In some situations (for example, when the element geometry is not yet calculated for the input view) this filter may return true even though the element may not actually be visible when geometry is calculated.
