Create Curtain System

[Anonymous]

I am new to Revit. I want to create a Curtain System for the selected faces. To create, I can call the method

CurtainSystem cs = document.Create.NewCurtainSystem() which takes two parameters. I can get the facearray from the user selection. But I am not knowing how to create a CurtainSystemType which is the second parameter. Is there any sample code for this?

Also, can i colour the curtain system with multiple colors (different color for each grid) ?

Thanks,

Hi!

You can use FilteredElementCollector to retrieve all CurtainSystemTypes or you can use doc.GetDefaultElementTypeId(ElementTypeGroup.CurtainSystemType)

1)

var collector = new FilteredElementCollector(doc);
var cst = collector.OfClass(typeof(CurtainSystemType)).OfType<CurtainSystemType>().FirstOrDefault(x => <your condition>);

2)

var cstId = doc.GetDefaultElementTypeId(ElementTypeGroup.CurtainSystemType);
var cst = (CurtainSystemType)doc.GetElement(cstId);

About your second question. You can get curtain system curtain grids, then for each curtain grid get panels, and override graphics for specific views
