Multiple input to a splitBodyFeature ?
Think of it as an idea.
I found the analyzeInterference method to be very fast when I tried it here before.
You may want to try creating a box as the tools of the split in advance and check for interference.
>it will still require 700 tool-boxes ?
Yes, it is.
I'd like to try it out and compare, but I'm busy with work and don't have the time.
Accepted solution
We created a sample to compare.
I didn't know how to do the splitting using TemporaryBRepManager, so I used the booleanOperation method.
The result of my test was that TemporaryBRepManager was faster to process.
I feel that the reason for the slowness is the fact that Component.bRepBodies.add needs to be done twice when using the analyzeInterference method.
