Parameters

aDoc
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Document
The document.
hostElement
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Element
The element that will host the FabricArea. The host can be a Structural Floor, Structural Wall, Structural Slab, or a Part created from a structural layer belonging to one of those element types.
curveLoops
Type: System.Collections.Generic..::..IList<(Of <(<'CurveLoop>)>)>
An array of curves that will define the outline of the FabricArea. This includes curves defining openings in the interior of the area.
majorDirection
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
A vector to define the major direction of the FabricArea.
majorDirectionOrigin
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
An origin point of the major direction line
fabricAreaTypeId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The id of the FabricAreaType.
fabricSheetTypeId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The id of the FabricSheetType.

Return Value

The newly created FabricArea.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentException Not all curveLoops in curveLoops are closed and continuous. -or- Not all curveLoops in curveLoops are in the same plane. -or- curveLoops should only contain lines or arcs. -or- The element hostElement was not found in the given document. -or- the host Element is not a valid host for Area Reinforcement, Path Reinforcement, Fabric Area or Fabric Sheet. -or- fabricAreaTypeId should refer to an FabricAreaType element. -or- fabricSheetTypeId should refer to an FabricSheetType element.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was NULL
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentOutOfRangeException majorDirection has zero length.
