Categories.Item

Description:
Retrieves a category object corresponding to a BuiltInCategory id.

Remarks:
Unlike the method that obtains categories by name, this routine will obtain the handle even of built-in subcategories. Since 2016 it is advised to use either Category.GetCategory(Document, BuiltInCategory) or Category.GetCategory(Document, ElementId) from Category class.
