Arc.Create

Description:
Creates a new geometric arc object based on plane, radius, and angles.

Remarks:
If the angle range is equal to or greater than 2 * PI, the curve will be automatically converted to an unbounded circle.

Autodesk.Revit.DB.Plane

plane

The plane which the arc resides. The plane's origin is the center of the arc.
System.Double

radius

The radius of the arc.
System.Double

startAngle

The start angle of the arc (in radians).
System.Double

endAngle

The end angle of the arc (in radians).

Return Value The new arc. The new arc.
