Single Pick to Unjoin Solid Geometry from everything method.

mr.engineer.aec — Fri, 04 Sep 2020 03:04:16 GMT

Hi All,

I can't understand why:
- In Revit, we can use Unjoin Geometry to unjoin a element from evething, which joined with it.
- In Revit API, we have method

UnjoinGeometry(
	Document document,
	Element firstElement,
	Element secondElement

Now, i want to pick a element only, it will unjoin from evething in Revit API.
How can i do ?

Thank in advanced !

Not sure I'm understanding the problem here?

JoinGeometryUtils.GetJoinedElements(Document, Element), Since 2014,

Iterate the resulting set and unjoin each from the subject element (or match the set against items in a second selection).

UI works the same way as far as I can tell: "Removes a join between two or more elements" i.e. not everything in one pick.
