My friend Monika just pointed out Matt Mason’s

blog
to me, mainly due to his nice

praise
for The Building Coder. Thank you, Matt!
And thanks to Monika for pointing it out.

Matt covers a variety of CAD application development topics, with the main focus on Revit, judging from the current tags:

  • AutoCAD 1
  • Autodesk 2
  • DotNet 2
  • DWF 2
  • Events 4
  • Google Earth 1
  • Intent 1
  • Inventor 4
  • Revit 32
  • Vault 1

He is Director of Software Development at Avatech Solutions and will be presenting a class on

Advanced Revit API
at

Autodesk University.

I’m looking forward to seeing you there soon, both you Matt and you dear reader!

    Dear Prasad,
    Thank you for these interesting questions.
    You can create a new reference plane using the Document NewReferencePlane and NewReferencePlane2 methods. An example of using both of them is given by the Revit 2010 SDK sample WindowWizard.
    The reference line is not yet fully exposed through the API, but the ModelCurve does provide a new method ChangeToReferenceLine which returns a reference curve or reference line for a given model curve or line. This method is also part of the new family API, and is thus applicable only to curves in conceptual mass families.
    Cheers, Jeremy.

    Dear Prasad,
    Please have a look at the Document.NewDimension method. An example of using this is provided by the Revit SDK sample CreateDimensions.
    Cheers, Jeremy.

    Dear Sherif,
    You cannot, as far as I know. I think Revit uses the Windows user name.
    Cheers, Jeremy.
