Add filters from the filter dialog to the view

Question

Does anybody know how to access and add the filters from the filters tab in the Visibilty Graphics from the Revit API in C#? I am using versie 2014 of the API. In the second screenshot the list is empty but in my revit project it is filled with filters.

Answer 1

I found the solution:

FilteredElementCollector viewCollector = new FilteredElementCollector(doc);
viewCollector.OfClass(typeof(FilterElement));

the FilterElements in the collection are the ones in the dialog describe in my question.
