Hi,

how to change Start extension, End extension of steel member through API.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Find out for yourself:

• Install RevitLookup.
• Explore the element properties.
• Manually change the start and end extension.
• Explore the element properties.
• Note the differences.

Once you have determined what modifications were made in the Revit database by the manual manipulation, you can easily reproduce the same programmatically via API.

Here are some other, more detailed explanations of various tools and processes you can use to dig in deeper, if you like:
