Description
If you want to rotate an element (but not passing a value to the rotate parameter) you can use the transform util provided by Revit. Just make sure that the passed line is an Autodesk.Revit.DB.Line.
Solution
python
import re;
clr.AddReference("RevitAPI");
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import ElementId as DBElementId
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import ElementTransformUtils as DBElementTransformUtils
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
import RevitServices
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
from RevitServices.Transactions import TransactionManager
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)
# _line is an Autodesk.Revit.DB.Line element
def rotateElement(element, _line, _angle):
try:
DBElementTransformUtils.RotateElement(doc, DBElementId(element.Id), _line, _angle);
return element;
except:
return "Error Rotating";
OUT = rotateElement(IN[0], IN[1])
