Hi everybody, how to set view title default when moving the view to the sheet using C#. Thank you.

Try getting the BuiltInParameter View_Description from the view:

view.get_parameter(BuiltInParameter.View_Description)

My Code:

Dear Vu,

Try this:

view.get_Parameter(BuiltInParameter.VIEW_DESCRIPTION).Set("What ever you want!");

Cheer,

I want to set view title with the name "No Title" for all viewers. When I move any views to the sheet, they have viewport type is "No Title". Currently, I don't find the parameter for "No Title", I know it at ElementType and get with syntax ElementType elementType = new FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfClass(typeof(ElementType)).Cast<ElementType>().Where(x => x.Name == "No Title").First();

Hope everybody help please. Thanks.

Dear Nhu,

Try this

//Get viewport element
Viewport vp = Viewport.Create(doc, sheet, section, new XYZ(0, 0, 0));
//Find View port type (use System.Linq)
Element viewport = new FilteredElementCollector(doc).WhereElementIsElementType().Where(s => (s as ElementType).FamilyName == "Viewport").ToList().FirstOrDefault(s => s.Name == "No Title");
//Change viewport element type
vp.LookupParameter("Type").Set(viewport.Id);

Hope this help!

Cheer,

Viet

Good to hear you got it resolved. Maybe you could select the reply that lead to this as the solution? If you fixed it in an other way, could you post the solution yourself, and mark it as such? Might be helpful for others in the future 🙂

Dear FlorisvdG, this is my Code

ElementType elementType = new FilteredElementCollector(doc).OfClass(typeof(ElementType)).Cast<ElementType>().Where(x => x.Name == "No Title").First();
doc.SetDefaultElementTypeId(ElementTypeGroup.ViewportType, elementType.Id);
