AnalysisDisplayColoredSurfaceSettings and ShowContourLines

[Anonymous]

Hi,

When I create an instance of Autodesk.Revit.DB.Analysis.AnalysisDisplayColoredSurfaceSettings and set its ShowContourLines property to true the contour lines are not displayed. The ShowGridLines property works as expected.

This problem occurs directly though the Revit API as well as through the "Modify | Analysis Results" -> "Style" -> "Edit Style" dialog that controls the instance through the Revit UI.

The Revit version I use is 2019.1 ( 19.1.0.112 , 20180806_1515(x64) )

Does anyone has had similar experiences? Any ideas how I can fix this?

Best regards,

Martin

I think I figured it out: The ContourLines that can be activated by this command seem to be the "outline" of the surface that got analytically colored. We expected somehow that this property turns on something like "isolines" representing contours in some cases.

If someone can support this view, this request is closed.

Best regards,
Martin

Hi Martin, 

I'm asking the engineering team to confirm.  (Sorry that this looked like marked as solved.)

Hi Martin, 

I got confirmation from the Revit engineer: 

"Yes, it is just the outer boundary of the surface (not the isolines)." 

I hope this helps.
