Split wall at intersection point

[dwtG8UXF]

Hi,

     The api of split element is still can't be uesd for wall? 

     There has a need to split the wall at points, because each wall has difference structure. I don't want to split walls by hand. So I hope the split API can use for wall. But if the API cannot work for wall ,

   Is there has way to solve this problem?

First, perform the desired manipulation by hand in the end user interface. Then, analyse the exact results of doing so in the Revit database elements and properties by exploring the BIM using RevitLookup and other db exploration tools:

That is the standard approach to determine how to solve a Revit API programming task.

Back in 2009, this functionality was not available in the API:

Luckily, things seem to have changed since then. I search the Internet for 'revit api split wall':

Looking forward to hearing how you end up resolving this.

May be you could use way as below in program.

1.You have wall from that you could get curve so you have start point and end point of wall..

2.You know intersection point.Create new wall using curve From start point of wall and intersection point.

3.delete old wall.
