Create aligned dimension between rebars

Anonymous — Mon, 15 May 2017 05:12:11 GMT

I was trying to create new aligned dimension between rebars. The error message I'm getting is: The references are not geometric references.

Is there a work around so that I can create dim for rebars?

I was able to solve the issue. Rebar doesn't give any geometry. So all trial to generate dim from Rebar was failing.

The method I tried was with the ActiveView, selected rebar Options.

Snippet

Options options = new Options();

options.ComputeReferences = true;
options.IncludeNonVisibleObjects = true;
//options.DetailLevel = ViewDetailLevel.Fine;
options.View = uiDoc.Document.ActiveView;

If I select the Geometry Elements from this and filter only lines, I can get the reference of that lines.

Hope this helps someone in future.
