Find views with Linked By View RVT Links settings

hello,

 

Is it possible, via the API, to output a list of views that are using the Linked By View setting for RVT Links?

 

Thank you

I should think so. I suggest:

  

  • Research to find a simple criterion to determine whether a view is using the Linked By View setting for RVT links
  • Implement a filtered element collector that collects all views and eliminates the ones that do not fulfil the criterion

  

In the simplest case, the criterion could be implemented by simply checking some element parameter on the view.

  

I suggest using RevitLookup and other database exploration tools to snopp the views and find out, c.f.,
