Revit 2025.3 API
View |
Validates curve to be added to the view-specific shape being constructed. Called by AddCurve() to validate input. Expects a valid view normal to be set prior to the call.
Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.3.0.0 (25.3.0.0)
Syntax
public bool ValidateCurve( Curve GCurve )
Public Function ValidateCurve ( GCurve As Curve ) As Boolean
public: bool ValidateCurve( Curve^ GCurve )
member ValidateCurve : GCurve : Curve -> bool
Parameters
- GCurve Curve
- Curve object to be validated.
Return Value
BooleanTrue is %GCurve% is acceptable as a part of view-specific shape representation being built.

Exception | Condition |
---|---|
ArgumentNullException | A non-optional argument was null |

This function may be used to pre-validate the geometry being added to avoid AddCurve() throwing an InvalidArgumentException
Validation conditions depend on the type of view for which the shape representation is intended.
For plan views, a curve is expected to be planar and non-degenerate (e.g., NOT a circle of zero radius).
