void ChangePointElevation(
	XYZ^ point, 
	double elevationValue
)

Parameters

point
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
The point to be modified.
elevationValue
Type: System..::..Double
The new elevation value.

Remarks

If the point doesn't exist in the current TopographySurface, an exception will be thrown. This applies to a TopographySurface element (not a SiteSubRegion or a topography surface associated with a BuildingPad), which should be in an active TopographyEditScope.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentException The input point does not exist in the current topography surface.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ArgumentOutOfRangeException The given value for elevationValue must be no more than 30000 feet in absolute value.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..InvalidOperationException This element is not a TopographySurface. -or- The points of this topography surface are not editable. -or- The TopographySurface element is not in an active TopographyEditScope. Modification cannot be made on this TopographySurface.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ModificationForbiddenException The document containing this TopographySurface is in failure mode: an operation has failed, and Revit requires the user to either cancel the operation or fix the problem (usually by deleting certain elements). -or- The document containing this TopographySurface is being loaded, or is in the midst of another sensitive process.
Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions..::..ModificationOutsideTransactionException The document containing this TopographySurface has no open transaction.
