public class RebarShapeDefinition : IDisposable

The RebarShapeDefinition type exposes the following members.

Properties
 NameDescription
Public propertyComplete Report whether the shape definition is fully constrained.
Public propertyIsPlanar Reports whether the shape definition lies within a plane: false if a spiral, true in all other cases.
Public propertyIsValidObject Specifies whether the .NET object represents a valid Revit entity.

Remarks
A RebarShapeDefinition stores a set of Rebar Shape parameters. Each parameter may be associated with:
  • One or more RebarShapeConstraints; or
  • A formula; or
  • Neither of the above.
Each shape instance (Rebar object) will have its own values for these parameters. The RebarShapeDefinition also stores a default value for each parameter, which is ignored if the parameter is associated with a formula.
