The faces that belong to the solid.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax
public FaceArray Faces { get; }
Public ReadOnly Property Faces As FaceArray
	Get
public:
property FaceArray^ Faces {
	FaceArray^ get ();
}
member Faces : FaceArray with get

Property Value

FaceArray
Remarks
A face may be degenerate. This can be determined with the Face property IsTwoSided.
Example
Copy
