RevolvedSurfaceIsValidProfileCurve(Frame, Curve) Method

Checks if the input profile curve is valid to create a surface of revolution in the given frame of reference.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax
Copy
public static bool IsValidProfileCurve(
	Frame frameOfReference,
	Curve profileCurve
)

Parameters

frameOfReference  Frame
frameOfReference is an orthonormal frame that defines a local coordinate system for the surface of revolution.
  • The frame can be "right-handed" or "left-handed".
  • The origin of the frame is the base of point of the axis of revolution.
  • The BasisZ of the frame is the direction of the axis.
profileCurve  Curve
The profile curve.

Return Value

Boolean
True if the profile curve is valid; False otherwise.
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Remarks
The validity is defined as follows:
  • The profile curve is bounded and non-degenerate.
  • It is co-planar with the axis of revolution.
  • It lies on the xz plane of the frame.
  • It lies on the right side of the axis.
  • Only the end points of the profile curve can touch the axis.
