P CanFlipHand bool Property to test whether the orientation of family instance hand can be flipped.
P CanFlipWorkPlane bool Identifies if the instance can flip its work plane.
P CanRotate bool Property to test whether the family instance can be rotated by 180 degrees.
P CanSplit bool Identifies whether a particular family instance can be split at a point on it's defining curve (by Split(Double) ).
P Category Category Retrieves a Category object that represents the category or sub category in which the element resides. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P CreatedPhaseId ElementId Id of a Phase at which the Element was created. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P DemolishedPhaseId ElementId Id of a Phase at which the Element was demolished. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P DesignOption DesignOption Returns the design option to which the element belongs. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P Document Document Returns the Document in which the Element resides. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P ExtensionUtility IExtension Property to check whether the instance can be extended and return the interface for extension operation.
P FacingFlipped bool Property to test whether the orientation of family instance facing is flipped.
P FacingOrientation XYZ Property to get the orientation of family instance facing.
P FromRoom Room The "From Room" set for the door or window in the last phase of the project.
P FromRoom[Phase] Room
P Geometry GeometryElement Retrieves the geometric representation of the element. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P GroupId ElementId The id of the group to which an element belongs. (Inherited from Element ) Element
P HandFlipped bool Property to test whether the orientation of family instance hand is flipped.
P HandOrientation XYZ Property to get the orientation of family instance hand.
P HasSpatialElementCalculationPoint Boolean Identifies if this instance has a single SpatialElementCalculationPoint used as the search point for Revit to identify if the instance is inside a room or space.
P HasSpatialElementFromToCalculationPoints Boolean Identifies if this instance has a pair of SpatialElementCalculationPoints used as the search points for Revit to identify if the instance lies between up to two rooms or spaces.
P Host Element If the instance is contained within another element, this property returns the containing element. An instance that is face hosted will return the element containing the face.
P HostFace Reference Property to get the reference to the host face of family instance.
P HostParameter double If the instance is hosted by a wall, this property returns the parameter value of the insertion point of the instance along the wall's location curve, as long as the family of the instance isn't work plane based.
