AddCutBetweenSolids(Document, Element, Element, Boolean)

Adds a solid-solid cut for the two elements with the option to control splitting of faces of the cutting solid.

Public Method
Static Member

CanElementCutElement

Verifies if the cutting element can add a solid cut to the target element.

Public Method
Static Member

CutExistsBetweenElements

Checks that if there is a solid-solid cut between two elements.

Public Method

GetCuttingSolids

Gets all the solids which cut the input element.

Public Method
Static Member

GetSolidsBeingCut

Get all the solids which are cut by the input element.

Public Method
Static Member
IsAllowedForSolidCut

Validates that the element is eligible for a solid-solid cut.

Public Method
Static Member
IsElementFromAppropriateContext

Validates that the element is from an appropriate document.

Public Method
Static Member

Removes the solid-solid cut between the two elements if it exists.

Public Method

Remarks

These utilities are applicable for the generic forms, geometry combinations and family instances in conceptual model, pattern based curtain panel, or adaptive component families, and family instances which are permitted to participate in joining in projects. Thus, for example, a beam cannot cut a wall (as the wall is not a family instance) in projects. Nor can a steel beam participate in cutting another family (because steel beams do not participate in joining).
