)

Parameters

aDoc
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Document
Document to which new line load will be added.
hostElemId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The analytical host element for the line Load.
curveIndex
Type: System..::..Int32
The index of a curve in analytical surface element starting from 0. Use [!:Autodesk::Revit::DB::Structure::AnalyticalSurfaceBase::GetOuterContour] method to obtain appropriate curve index. Curve index has a unique value in analytical element. The index should be obtain by iteration through all curves in all loops.
forceVector1
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
The applied 3d force vector.
momentVector1
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
The applied 3d moment vector.
symbol
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure..::..LineLoadType
The symbol of the LineLoad. Set nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) to use default type.

Return Value

If successful, returns the newly created LineLoad, nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) otherwise.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentException The element hostElemId does not exist in the document -or- hostElemId is not permitted for this type of load.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentsInconsistentException Thrown when all force and moment vectors are equal zero.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..InvalidOperationException Thrown if type could not be set for newly created line load.
