Align the part by its insertion point to a point and rotation on a straight. This will automatically size and connect the part being cut into, if possible.

Visual C++
public: static bool AlignPartByInsertionPointAndCutInToStraight( Document^ document, ElementId^ straightId, ElementId^ partId, XYZ^ position, double rotation, double slope, bool flip )

Parameters

document: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Document
The document.

straightId: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The element identifier of the straight to be cut in to.

partId: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The element identifier of the part to align and cut in with.

position: Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
The position to move the parts insertion point to.

rotation: Type: System..::..Double
The rotation in radians.

slope: Type: System..::..Double
The slope value to flex to match if possible in fractional units (eg.1/50). Positive values are up, negative are down. Slopes can only be applied to fittings, whilst straights will inherit the slope from the piece it is connecting to.

flip: Type: System..::..Boolean
Flip the part to allow for flow direction.

Return Value

True if the alignment succeeds, false otherwise.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentException	The element is not a fabrication part. -or- Not all of the fabrication part's connectors are open. -or- The part is not a straight. -or- The fabrication parts do not have matching domain types. -or- The position is not on the straight.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentNullException	A non-optional argument was NULL
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..InvalidOperationException	Failed to align the part to the straight to cut in to.
