BuiltIn Instance Parameters

[annse]

Hi!

Is it possible to list all instance parameters for an uninstantiated FamilyInstance?

I've been able to get instance parameters from the Document.ParameterBindings checking

the binding is an InstanceBinding. 

I've also gotten the instance parameters from the FamilyManager.Parameters checking

the parameter is IsInstance.

How do I get the BuiltIn parameters that gets added to a FamilyInstance when instantiated?

Are there any more?

Thanks!

I am afraid that it is not possible to know the parameters ahead of time. That is in fact the same for most elements, not just family instances. The process of attaching parameters to an elements is rather complex due to the very nature of parameters and how they come from various sources. Therefore the only way of acquiring all possible parameters an element is to have is only after the elements has been created. That stands true for family instances as well.

Thank you for clearing that up.
