Description:
Creates a non rectangular profile wall within the project using the specified wall type and normal vector.
Overloads (5):

Create(Document,Curve,ElementId,Boolean)
Create(Document,Curve,ElementId,ElementId,Double,Double,Boolean,Boolean)
Create(Document,IList[Curve],Boolean)

public static Wall Create(
	Document document,
	IList<Curve> profile,
	ElementId wallTypeId,
	ElementId levelId,
	bool structural,
	XYZ normal
)
  • Document
    document
    The document in which the new wall is created.
  • IList<Curve>
    profile
    An array of planar curves that represent the vertical profile of the wall.
  • ElementId
    wallTypeId
    Id of the wall type to be used by the new wall instead of the default type.
  • ElementId
    levelId
    Id of the level on which the wall is to be placed.
  • Boolean
    structural
    If set, specifies that the wall is structural in nature.
  • XYZ
    normal
    A vector that must be perpendicular to the profile which dictates which side of the wall is considered to be inside and outside.
Return Value Wall If successful a new wall object within the project.
