Hi,
I have an issue. I am using the window Revit template which has a wall embedded. I have created some voids and I want to cut the wall with these voids. When using the user interface, I can use the Cut Geometry tool and it works perfectly. But I want to automate it using the Revit API and Python. The question is, is there a method to do this? I have already tried the following:
- BooleanOperationsUtils.ExecuteBooleanOperation: This one works in the sense that it outputs a solid, but it is not actually making the hole in the wall.
- InstanceVoidCutUtils.AddInstanceVoidCut: The output is an error that says: “The element cannot be cut with a void instance. Parameter name: element.”
- CombineElements: The output is an error that says: “expected CombinableElement, got GeometryElement.”
Nothing is working, and it seems that if I was cutting a solid then it might be possible, but I want to cut a wall. Also, the Opening Cut doesn’t work because I need to use the voids I created to cut the wall.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
Thank you.
