Hey,

 

As far as I know, this is not possible. I've read this question before on the Dynamo forum, where some people speak about that.

I hope someone posts it´s possible. If not, that would be a nice feature for the next Revit version! 

Good luck!

I think it's not supported in the Revit API, if the Revit has it it may be available in not documented ".dll" file in the Revit setup file,
you can also check those 3 workaround ways in thebuildingcoder blog:

I didn't try those methods but I hope they work with you
