Set UserModifiable

melanie.ernst — Tue, 29 Nov 2022 13:42:44 GMT

Hello all!

I am creating a plugin for Revit via the Revit API where I am creating parameters. Type as well as instance parameters.

Now I want to set the UserModifiable property of those parameters to false, however, I did not manage to do this.

Is it even possible to change this property? If so, how?

Thanks in advance!

Akaik, this property can only be defined when creating the new parameter binding, via the ExternalDefinitionCreationOptions UserModifiable property:

I'm running into an issue on project parameter level where re-adding a parameter with a different UserModifiable value, doesn't get a correct result in Revit.

For anyone looking for a similar issue like mine:
