Setting an elements phase

stever66 — Sun, 20 Mar 2016 00:39:28 GMT

Can someone give me an example of how to set the Phase Created or the Phase Demolished of a element?

I've figured out how to get the Phase Created of an element with:

phaseCreated = element.Document.GetElement(element.CreatedPhaseId) as Phase;

but I don't quite understand all the code, and I can't figure out how to change it to set the phase.

Thanks:

Steve

Hi,

add

element.get_Parameter(PHASE_CREATED).Set(phaseCreated.Id);

element.get_Parameter(PHASE_DEMOLISHED).Set(phaseCreated.Id);

RevitLookup is your friend...

Awsome.

But I had to add one thing:

element.get_Parameter(BuiltInParameter.PHASE_CREATED).Set(phaseCreated.Id);

and;

element.get_Parameter(BuiltInParameter.PHASE_DEMOLISHED).Set(phaseCreated.Id);

Hi,

sorry, I've forgotten the "BuiltInParameter"...
