Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 21.0.0.0 (21.1.1.109)

Syntax

C#
public static bool SortPoints(
	ReferencePointArray arr
)
Visual Basic
Public Shared Function SortPoints ( _
	arr As ReferencePointArray _
) As Boolean
Visual C++
public:
static bool SortPoints(
	ReferencePointArray^ arr
)

Parameters

arr
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ReferencePointArray
An array of ReferencePoints. The array is reordered if sortPoints returns true, and is unchanged if sortPoints returns false.

Return Value

False if the least-squares method is unable to find a solution; true otherwise.

Remarks

Finds a best-fit line to the points by the least squares method, and orders the points by their projection onto the line.
