ViewTitle

[GonçaloFeio1321]

Hi

I am trying to get to the ViewPort view titles on sheets.

How can I access them?

Hi:

You can use the following approach to get access to the name of a viewport on a view sheet. Before running this code, please select a specific viewport and then run the code in an external command.

<code_begin>

foreach

(Element ele incommandData.Application.ActiveUIDocument.Selection.Elements)

{

String name = ele.get_Parameter(BuiltInParameter.VIEW_NAME).AsString();

TaskDialog.Show("Name", name);

<code_end>

Hope this helps.

Thanks Saikat,

But that was not what I wanted.

I want to access the view title element itself to move it around.

I can already move views, but I am trying to reposition just the viewtitle.

Any help on that?

Thanks

Hi:

Using the Revit LookUp tool (contained in the Revit SDK), i can see that the view titles can be filtered using Built-in Category called OST_ViewportLabel. And the element name is View Title. Can you try using this information and element filters to access the view titles on a given sheet. Let me know you have questions.

cheers
