FilteredElementCollector of Family Instances whitout Annotations

[jjesusdelpino]

So I got: 

foreach (FamilyInstance FamIn in new FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfClass(typeof(FamilyInstance)))

What is the best to just retrieve the non annotation FamilyInstances? Should be an easy one but Im not getting it. Thanks.

The Element class has the "ViewSpecific" property, which you could use to filter your selection. ViewSpecific is true for detail items, generic annotations, and tags.
