Public Class

Note: This API is now obsolete.

Creates a new SiteSubRegion element and adds it to the document.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Architecture

Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)

Syntax

[ObsoleteAttribute("This method is deprecated in Revit 2024 with the introduction of the new Toposolid elements.  It is recommended that Toposolid elements should be used in place of TopographySurface elements.")]
public static SiteSubRegion Create(
  Document document,
  IList<CurveLoop> curveLoops
)

Parameters

document Document

The document to be modified.

curveLoopsIList. CurveLoop.

The boundary of the subregion.

Return Value

SiteSubRegion
The new SubRegion surface.

Exceptions

Exception

Condition

ArgumentException

The input curve loops cannot compose a valid boundary, that means: no curve loop is contained in the given collection; these curve loops intersect with each other for some of them; or each curve loop is not closed individually; or each curve loop is not planar; or each curve loop is not in a plane parallel to the horizontal(XY) plane.

ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null

InvalidOperationException

Failed to create the Sketch for the boundary of the current Subregion. -or- Cannot find an appropriate host TopographySurface for the Subregion. -or- The given curve loops intersect with curve loops of existing SiteSubRegions hosted on the same TopographySurface. -or- The boundary of SubRegion is entirely inside or overlaps at least one existing BuildingPad hosted on the same TopographySurface. This behavior is not allowed.

ModificationForbiddenException

The document is in failure mode: an operation has failed, and Revit requires the user to either cancel the operation or fix the problem (usually by deleting certain elements). -or- The document is being loaded, or is in the midst of another sensitive process.

ModificationOutsideTransactionException

The document has no open transaction.

Remarks

This will create a new TopographySurface element which represents a subregion. If you need access to this Element you can obtain it from

TopographySurface

.
