IndependentTag RotationAngle property issue

[denisyukJ]

Hi, 

I use RotationAngle property to rotate tag, revit gives me to set the value of the property, but position of tags still the same. Once I select modified tags by rectangle frame it regenerates and rotates. Look at the gif below. Transaction commited so regeneration should be completed automatically, am I correct? Do somebody know how to fix it?

Commit should do document.Regenerate(), from what I remeber. But what is the problem it seems like thy did rotate.

Hi, @MarryTookMyCoffe 

I need to select elements manually to makes rotation 😞

[MarryTookMyCoffe]

so what you claim is that when you create tags with rotation property, tag stay with default rotation?

Hi,

I solved it this way:

IndependentTag independentTag = IndependentTag.Create(...);

independentTag.RotationAngle = angle;

// This is the trick
XYZ p = independentTag.TagHeadPosition;
XYZ dx = 1e-6 * activeView.RightDirection;
independentTag.TagHeadPosition = p + dx;
independentTag.TagHeadPosition = p;

doc.Regenerate();
