public static class ImportFailures
Name Return Type Description
P ATFContainedUnsupportedGeometricData FailureDefinitionId Obsolete. The original model contains unsupported geometric data.
P ATFNonUniformScalingTransform FailureDefinitionId Obsolete. The imported geometry contains non-uniform scaling transformations which Revit does not support. Some objects may be displaced or distorted.
P BadFaceFoundInDwg FailureDefinitionId One or more hatch regions were found in the imported file with unconnected boundaries. These hatch regions will be ignored.
P CannotChangeImportSymbol FailureDefinitionId Can't change an imported or linked element's symbol type.
P CannotExplodeElement FailureDefinitionId Can't explode the imported object.
P CannotImportFile FailureDefinitionId Can't import file.
P ElementRenamedOnImport FailureDefinitionId There were duplicate names between the active model and the imported element. To avoid duplicate names, the imported element has been renamed.
P FailedToSetWorkplane FailureDefinitionId Could not set Work Plane of [Import].\n\nPlease use the Work Plane tool to set a Work Plane for this view.
P IFCCantUpdateLinkedFile FailureDefinitionId The cached version of this IFC file is already loaded into another document in this session, and can't be updated. To update the IFC file, please close all other documents containing the link, and then update.
P IFCGenericImportWarning FailureDefinitionId The following problems were encountered in the IFC file: [Description]
P IFCGenericRevitImportWarning FailureDefinitionId Revit had the following problems importing the IFC file: [Description]
P IFCPartialSchemaSupport FailureDefinitionId IFC versions 4 and above are only partially supported by Open IFC. Consider using Link IFC instead.
P ImportContainedUnsupportedGeometricData FailureDefinitionId The original model contains unsupported geometric data.
P ImportContainedUnsupportedTransform FailureDefinitionId The imported geometry contains transformations which Revit does not support. Some objects may be displaced or distorted.
P ImportedModelIsEmpty FailureDefinitionId Imported model is empty.
P ImportedModelWithDifferentLengthUnits FailureDefinitionId The imported model uses different length units, Revit will default to auto-detect.
P ImportModelOutOfRange FailureDefinitionId The imported model is out of range.
P ImportModelTooLarge FailureDefinitionId The imported model is too large.
P ImportScaleTooLarge FailureDefinitionId This scale factor would make the imported object too large. Reverting to the previous scale factor.
P ImportSymbolBaseLevelInvalid FailureDefinitionId
P ImportTooFarAway FailureDefinitionId Imported objects located a large distance from the model might not display properly. The 'Center-to-Center' option will be used.
P ImportTooManyElmentsToExplode FailureDefinitionId Import Instance has [Number] elements. Imports with more than 10,000 elements cannot be exploded.
P LevelRenamedOnImport FailureDefinitionId This level has been renamed from [SourceLevelName] to avoid duplication.
P LostAcisObjectsOnImport FailureDefinitionId Some ACIS objects could not be imported. To import them, use AutoCAD to convert them into polymesh objects and reimport.
P SomeObjectsNotExploded FailureDefinitionId Import contained some 3D data or points which can't be exploded.
P TextNotImported FailureDefinitionId Text is only imported if the "Current View Only" option is selected. To see the text in the original file, import again with this check box selected in the Import Dialog.
P TooManyPickFaces FailureDefinitionId Too many faces were created from imported meshes. Host by Face tools may not select the imported meshes correctly. Decrease the complexity of the file or try importing only selected layers to resolve.
P ViewDoesNotSupportCenterToCenter FailureDefinitionId The "Center to Center" option is not supported by this view because it is empty. "Origin to Internal Origin" has been used instead.
P WorksetCreatedForLinkWarning FailureDefinitionId Newly created link types and instances were placed in new workset [workset name]
