Hi,
I'm trying to combine phases without loss because if you combine two phases in Revit you will lost your two bases phases.
The main idea of my tool :
1/ Duplicate the two phases
2/ Combine phases
3/ Rename new phase
What i have so far :
/// <summary> /// Permet de fusionner deux phases en une nouvelle phase /// </summary> [Transaction(TransactionMode.Manual)] public class ActionMergePhase : IExternalCommand { public Result Execute(ExternalCommandData commandData, ref string message, ElementSet elements) { ApplicationInformations app = new ApplicationInformations(commandData); // centralized stuff like document, activeView, // Dupliquer une phase ? using (TransactionPetit transaction = new TransactionPetit(app.Document, "Copy Phase", true, false)) // Custom transaction (supressWarning and/or error) { transaction.Start(); try { if(app.Phases.Size == 0) { throw new Exception(); } // Prendre "Phase 1" Phase phase1 = app.Phases.get_Item(1); // I have at least 3 phases in my project, so i can do that if (null == phase1) // just in case { throw new NullReferenceException(); } var id = ElementTransformUtils.CopyElement(app.Document, phase1.Id, XYZ.Zero); Phase copyPhase = app.Document.GetElement(id.First()) as Phase; copyPhase.Name = "myAwesomePhaseName"; // rename ? transaction.Commit(); } catch (Exception e) { transaction.RollBack(); TaskDialog.Show("Error", e.Message); return Result.Failed; } } // Then merge ?
// TODO
return Result.Succeeded; } }
Unfortunately, i have un pop up message with "Project's phase can't be copy"...
So, two questions :
- Does anyone ever tried to copy phase ?
- How could I combine two phases with Revit API ? (i'm using 2015 version)
