GeometryCreationUtilities.CreateExtrusionGeometry

Description:
Creates a solid by linearly extruding one or more closed coplanar curve loops.
Overloads (2):
CreateExtrusionGeometry(IList[CurveLoop],XYZ,Double,SolidOptions)
public static Solid CreateExtrusionGeometry(
	IList<CurveLoop> profileLoops,
	XYZ extrusionDir,
	double extrusionDist,
	SolidOptions solidOptions
)
  • profileLoops
    The profile loops to be extruded. The loops must be closed, coplanar, and without intersections, self-intersections, or degeneracies. No loop may contain just one closed curve - split such loops into two or more curves beforehand. No conditions are imposed on the orientations of the loops: this function will use copies of the input loops that have been oriented as necessary to conform to Revit's orientation conventions.
  • extrusionDir
    The direction in which to extrude the profile loops. This vector must be non-zero and transverse (i.e., not parallel) to the plane of the profile loops. Its length is irrelevant; only its direction is used.
  • extrusionDist
    The positive distance by which the loops are to be extruded in the direction of the input extrusionDir.
  • solidOptions
    The optional information to control the properties of the Solid.
Return Value Solid The requested solid.
  • The profile CurveLoops do not satisfy the input requirements. -or- The Input extrusionDir must be a non-zero vector. The normal of the loop plane should not be perpendicular to the given extrusionDir. -or- The input argument extrusionDist must be positive.
  • A non-optional argument was null
