	Frame frameOfReference
)
Visual Basic
Public Shared Function CanDefineRevitGeometry ( _
	frameOfReference As Frame _
) As Boolean

static bool CanDefineRevitGeometry(
	Frame^ frameOfReference
)

Parameters

frameOfReference
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Frame
Frame to be validated.

Return Value

True if this Frame may be used as a local frame of reference, false otherwise.
