How to unlock lock inside ceiling sketch to wall?

[Anonymous]

I would like to unlock the ceiling sketch that is locked to walls in a project.

I would probably collect all ceilings, access all their sketch lines and then unlock every padlock to a wall or just all padlocks. is this possible i cant find the properties to do this?

If the elements are pinned you can use the Element.Pinned property.

If they are constrained, the constraint is a separate element that you might be able to delete.

Hi @jeremytammik :

I would like to ask a further question:

How can I access the constrain object?

For example, in Family document:

In family doc, there are a lot of "locks". It it possible for API to obtain this object?

Sometimes I want to know which two objects are constrained by this contrain, or I want to programmatically delete it.

Dear @jlpgy ,

Have you installed and tested RevitLookup?

https://github.com/jeremytammik/RevitLookup

If not, I would suggest doing so right now.

That should enable you to immediately answer your question yourself.

Good luck and have fun!

Jeremy

I found it, it's a <Dimension> object, can be accessed by Snoop DB.
