SolidUtils.TessellateSolidOrShell

Description:
This function facets (i.e., triangulates) a solid or an open shell. Each boundary component of the solid or shell is represented by a single triangulated structure.

Remarks:
Every point on the triangulation of a boundary component of the solid (or shell) should lie within the 3D distance specified by the "accuracy" input of some point on the triangulation, and vice-versa. In some cases, this constraint may be implemented heuristically (not rigorously).

tessellationControls

This input controls various aspects of the triangulation.

Return Value TriangulatedSolidOrShell The triangulated structures corresponding to the boundary components of the input solid or the components of the input shell.

Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions.ArgumentException

solidOrShell is not valid for triangulation (for example, it contains no faces).
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions.ArgumentNullException

A non-optional argument was null
