    Revit API - Access to Text & Label Types within Family and Projects

    I'm trying to add new text types and label types to a project or family.

    I'm able to create new family types but I cannot access the text/label system paramters.

     

    Revit 2013

     

    Sorry for the noob question.

    Please use plain text.

    Yes this will work.

    I can look for the same procedure for labels and I'll be set.

     

    Thanks!

    For Text Types this worked.

    Revit API - Create Text Type

     

    For Label types I had to change "TextNote" to "TextElement" and "TextNoteType" to "Symbol".

     

    Project completed.
