Syntax
public static void SetMinimumNumberOfDigits( Document document, int value )
Public Shared Sub SetMinimumNumberOfDigits ( document As Document, value As Integer )
public: static void SetMinimumNumberOfDigits( Document^ document, int value )
static member SetMinimumNumberOfDigits : document : Document * value : int -> unit
Parameters

Exception | Condition |
---|---|
ArgumentNullException | A non-optional argument was null |
ArgumentOutOfRangeException | The minimum number of digits must be in range from 1 to 10. |
ModificationForbiddenException | The document 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 is being loaded, or is in the midst of another sensitive process. |
ModificationOutsideTransactionException | The document has no open transaction. |

Valid values range from 1 to 10. Numbers with fewer digits than the minimum number will be padded with leading zeros.
The value affects all numbering schemas. Thus, once set, numbers for Rebar and Reinforcement Fabric will be formatted with the same minimum number of digits.
The current value can obtained by invoking the GetMinimumNumberOfDigits(Document) method.
