Remove solid openings

Hello evereybody,

I am trying to create with the same geometry of another solid but removing all is openings. (eg. a wall without windows)

I have tried extratcting all external curve loops of the faces with openings and create a kind of extrusion mode in the Geometry creatio utilities class.

Unfortunately, I have found the problem when my solid, in this case a wall is curved (see attachment).

Is there any metdod in the geometry creation utilities class that allows to create a solid using non planar curve loops?

Many thanks in advace.

You could try this:

  

  • Start a transaction
  • Remove all the wall openings
  • Query the wall for its solid geometry
  • Duplicate the solid
  • Roll back the transaction to restore the wall to its original state
  • Start a new transaction
  • Use the solid to create the desired new geometry
  • Commit

  

How does that sound?
