I am using revit 2019 and dynamo 1.3. Dynamo1.3 does not support Synthesize so I cannot use HOT.CutGeometry. I can only use clockwork's Element.CutGeometry. But the walls were not cut and only a transparent cuboid in light orange was created between wall and the linked family. When checked the Geometry.Intersectall, it shows there is no intersection between two sets of elements, Do you know why?
hello, thank you very much for this useful video. I've followed all the nodes like you, I'm sure about that, and there are no errors in the entire dynamofile. apparently it works fine and without problems. but in my project, the walls were not cut and only a transparent cuboid in light orange was created around the two objects (wall and floor). where is my problem? I am using Revit 2023 and dynamo 2,16,1 version and the packages (Synthesize toolkit 2.1.8) and (Genius Loci 2023.2.21). Of course my Revit language is German. thank you in advance for your help.
Hello, without having your files to test it I do not know where is the problem. If you can, send me the files that you are using to nndkovacevic88@gmail.com
Hello, I hope everything is going well. I've tested both scripts and they work great. However, when using them in a project, I encountered the following error: "Warning: One or more geometries have failed to convert due to this error: Unable to make wire from edge body : WIRE_SELF_INTERSECTS2 -- Wire has self-intersection." This error occurs in the Element.Geometry node when selecting a wall from my model; the solid does not appear in Dynamo. Do you know what the issue might be with this wall? If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to ask you a couple of questions that have come up regarding the script. One of them is that every time I want to create a new cut with a new linked element, I have to close and reopen the script to be able to select it. Is this correct, or is there something not functioning properly with this node in the script? The second question is about managing changes when I've already made a cut in the wall and, for some reason, the structure or position of the linked element has changed. How can I undo that opening in the model element? Thank you very much for your time and your contributions. I just discovered your page, and I find it very interesting.
Hello, I'm not sure what type of wall you have when Element.Geometry did not succeed in converting it into geometry. Walls are pretty simple geometry. Regarding the opening/closing script, I don't remember, but I assume the script works for a single element. With additional development, that can change (so the script can handle more elements at once), but in the current script, it would be faster for you to use Dynamo Player. After finishing one element, you can click play and run it again. The script creates a void element and cuts the wall, it should not move the link in any case. If you want, you can send me sample files to test at nndkovacevic88@gmail.com and when I have some time, I will check them.
@@dynamo_scripts thank you very much for your quick response and your help. I'll prepare the shipment with the documents this morning and send it to that email. Have a nice day.
Hello sir, I tried the exact same script mentioned in the video, but I am not able to get the same results as you. I have tried in Revit 2021 Student Version. Kindly help me with this.
Hello Nikhil, in Dynamo a lot of different things can be a problem. I can not know what is a problem in your case but I did create a video where I did show common problems in Dynamo, maybe it will help: ruclips.net/video/U056OWvOymM/видео.html
Hello Maria, it is hard to know where is the problem just on your description. Try to go one by one node in Dynamo, to follow the result of each node and to see where the logic stopped inside the script. In this case we can maybe say that final node did not cut wall but usually the problem is somewhere before the node where we have a warning or wrong result.
Thank you for this videos.. but how can I reach these custom nodes in my script ??

hi, it was able to cut the wall but it did not change properties instead the void family can now be seen in the model, why is that happening?
Hi, if the value for area of the wall is still the same than script did not cut that element. Element still have the same size.
@@dynamo_scripts oh, but now there is a void family inside and its not showing any warning on the code, where could be the problem?

Hi,
Can we cut all walls automatically?
Hi, I did not test in this script but I'm sure that we could create a variation of this script that will cut all walls automatically.
Thanks for quickly reply
Can u test ,please
