ElementActiveViewByCategory – collect all elements of a category from an active view.

# dynamo version - 1.3.4

import clr,System
clr.AddReference("RevitAPI")
clr.AddReference("RevitServices")
from Autodesk.Revit.DB import *
from RevitServices.Persistence import DocumentManager
# document
doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
# category input
category = UnwrapElement(IN[0])
# all BuiltInCategory object

# check matching id to collect BIC object
for bic in builtInCategories:
	# if match
	if ElementId(bic) == category.Id:
		catObj = bic
		break
	
# collect elements
elements = FilteredElementCollector(doc, doc.ActiveView.Id).OfCategory(catObj).ToElements()

# output
OUT = elements

# if no input, collect all rooms
else:

# room status list for output
placed,notplaced,notenclosed,redundant = [],[],[],[]
