Examples of FamilyInstance objects within Autodesk Revit are Beams, Columns, Braces and Desks. The FamilyInstance object provides more detailed properties that enable the type of the family instance to be changed, thus changing their appearance within the project.

Methods

ConnectorInfo(Element)

return information connector of fitting

[MultiReturn(new string[] { "Size", "PartType" })]
[NodeCategory("Query")]
public static IDictionary ConnectorInfo(Element fitting)

Parameters

fitting Element

family instance

Returns

IDictionary

Examples

NewCrossFitting(Connector, Connector, Connector, Connector)

Add a new family instance of a cross fitting into the Autodesk Revit document, using four connectors.

[NodeCategory("Create")]
public static Element? NewCrossFitting(Connector connector1, Connector connector2, Connector connector3, Connector connector4)

Parameters

connector1 Connector

The first connector to be connected to the cross.

connector2 Connector

The second connector to be connected to the cross.

connector3 Connector

The third connector to be connected to the cross.

connector4 Connector

The fourth connector to be connected to the cross

Returns

Element

If creation was successful then an family instance to the new object is returned, and the transition fitting will be added at the connectors' end if necessary, otherwise an exception with failure information will be thrown.

Examples
