Parameters

doc
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Document
The document where the element will be created and added.
name
Type: System..::..String
The name of the generic zone to be created.
domainData
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Analysis..::..GenericZoneDomainData
The specific domain requirements for the generic zone.
levelId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The base level on which the generic zone will be created.
curveLoops
Type: System.Collections.Generic..::..IList<(Of <(<'CurveLoop>)>)>
The loops that define the lines, curves and areas that overlap or crosses the elements you want to belong to the zone. Multiple loops are allowed, they can be open or closed, but they should be on the same horizontal plane.

Return Value

The newly created generic zone.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentException name cannot include prohibited characters. -or- name is an empty string. -or- The ElementId levelId is not a Level. -or- The curve loops in the input array are empty. -or- The input curve loops do not all lie in the same horizontal plane.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was NULL
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..InvalidOperationException 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).
