Hello all,
I am trying to write an add-in that brings up a WindowsForm that has a list of check boxes that the user can select to determine which levels (and reference planes) they want to be removed from the project. I have created an ArrayList with the Element Ids for both the levels and planes. It is listed below as ArrayList.cs. I have also listed my the class I am trying to use to delete the elements. It is labeled BasementDeleteElements.cs. I am struggling with getting the asementDeleteElements.cs to access the array and then to use the variables in the array as the Element Ids for Revit to delete. I am very new to C# and would appreciate all the help I can get.
