Change the panel a connector is connected to

I've spent a few hours searching, and trying different things, but I can't seem to get or set the Panel that a device is connected to.

 

For example, if I select a receptacle, I want to be able to see and change the Panel that receptacle is connected to.

 

I've managed to get the connector for the selected item and assign it to "c".  But I cant get any farther.

 

I've tried:

 

MEPFamilyConnectorInfo famConnInfo = c.GetMEPConnectorInfo () as MEPFamilyConnectorInfo ;
        	ParameterValue param = famConnInfo.GetConnectorParameterValue( new ElementId(BuiltInParameter.RBS_ELEC_CIRCUIT_PANEL_PARAM));
        	TaskDialog.Show("RBS ELEC CIRCUIT PANEL PARAM:", param.ToString ());

I can't seem to convert the ParameterValue param to anything useful.  Trying to use .ToString() causes an error.

How to change a SturcturalConnectionHandlerType

Hello,

 

is it possible to edit the parameters for a StructuralConnectionHandlerType?

 

A StructuralConnectionHandler has a counterpart in the Advance API the UserAutoConnectionObjet / IJoint.

It can be used inside a FabricationTransaction to change StructuralConnectionHandler.

Is there also a counterpart for the StructuralConnectionHandlerType too?

The method View. IsElementVisibleInTemporaryViewMode() checks for visibility given a specific TemporaryViewMode.

View v = doc.ActiveView;
ElementId catid = new ElementId(BuiltInCategory.OST_Doors);
bool isVisible =  v.IsElementVisibleInTemporaryViewMode(TemporaryViewMode.TemporaryHideIsolate,catid);

Element created from solid lost material property in family document

Hi everyone, I created a solid using the following code: SolidOptions options = new SolidOptions(material.Id, ElementId.InvalidElementId); Solid solid = GeometryCreationUtilities.CreateSweptBlendGeometry(pathCurve, pathParams, profileLoops, vertexPairs, options); If I create a DirectShape element using the solid in a project document, the DirectShape element has correct material appearance. But if I create the DirectShape element in a family document, the element just shows grey color and does not have any material appearance. I also tried creating a FreeFormElement using the solid in a family document, and got the same problem, no material appearance. I noticed in the properties browser that the material property is “By Category”. Could anyone please help me on this? How to give the element correct material appearance in the family document? Thanks,

Hi! I want to create ExternalEvent on button click. But I get exception: "Attempting to create an ExternalEvent outside of a standard API execution". When I checked the thread of the main window and the Command class, they were the same thread. What's the magic? I created the class for reseting event in Command class.

The registry holds this information:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\Revit\2020\REVIT-05:0809

Name                           Data
InstallationLocation        C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2020\
InstallationType             standalone
Language                      English
ProductName                 Autodesk Revit 2020

Version                         2020 (20.0.0.377)

 

There are lots of examples on line (including from Jeremy) to read the registry.

trouble reading entity schema

September 15, 2019, 5:09 pm

I seem to be having some trouble getting access to the entity schema I created.

 

About 7 years ago, I created an app that reads & writes a schema to the project info element. A year later I created another app that only reads this schema. Now I am updating the second app and I find with Revit 2019 it can no longer read the schema. I keep getting the error "Schema not available to this application" but in the schema builder the read\write access is set to vendor. The name, guid and vendor id are set the same in both apps. I can still get the schema with the latest version of the app that created it, it's just the second app that can't.

 

Is this a bug in the most recent API's?

Hi ,

 

You can use Wall.Orientation to get the external face normal vector which will help you get the face you want.

Please refer this for more information.

Hi ,

 

I'm not sure about what's non-uniform ceiling.

But if you want to get the ceiling height, instead of using dividing the volume by the room's area, try to use the built-in parameter "CEILING_HEIGHTABOVELEVEL_PARAM" of the ceiling to get the height.

Hope this helps.

Hi ,

 

From your descriptions I can only guess it's because Revit does not support for multi-threading which means that before you finish your current work, you can not do anything further.

The above is just my guess, if you can provide more details(your code or a reproducible sample file), we can know better of your problem.

Hello Everyone! 
How to access the ActiveUIDocument from outside of the Execute method?

My goal is to get data from my active document, with a Button Click on a windows form.

Currently the method which is called by the button click, is within the same class, where the form was initialized. 

I was able to do it in macro editor (ThisDocument tdoc = new ThisDocument -> tdoc.ActiveUIDocument).

How to access it with a plugin?

 I doubt that everything in Dynamo Geometry can be achieved by using Revit API. Could you find the intersections of two Faces in Revit API so that it returns a Face, Curve, or NotIntersected? I'm afraid not.
