Revit 2025 API
Point |
Creates a new point cloud filter based upon planar boundaries.
Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.PointClouds
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax
public static PointCloudFilter CreateMultiPlaneFilter( IList<Plane> planes )
Public Shared Function CreateMultiPlaneFilter ( planes As IList(Of Plane) ) As PointCloudFilter
public: static PointCloudFilter^ CreateMultiPlaneFilter( IList<Plane^>^ planes )
static member CreateMultiPlaneFilter : planes : IList<Plane> -> PointCloudFilter
Parameters
- planes IListPlane
- All planes used for filtering; positive direction of the normal should point inside the volume of interest. Only points on the "positive" side of all planes will pass the filter.
Return Value
PointCloudFilterFilter object; can be used to get representative set of cloud points passing through the filter.

Exception | Condition |

ArgumentNullException | A non-optional argument was null |

The filter will check whether a point is located on the "positive" side of each plane,
as indicated by the positive direction of the plane normal. Therefore, such filter implicitly defines a volume,
which is the intersection of the positive half-spaces corresponding to all the planes.
This volume does not have to be closed, but it will always be convex.
