Array Won't Work for Voids

[RC_RVT]

So I'm creating a locker family, I thought if created a solid block I could then load in a locker door family that is face based with a void that cuts the locker out of the locker block. However, I can't array this, see video attached.

I also created a hob extractor block that had another void array that needed to move with the block up and down depending on placement, but this wouldn't work either. Every time I moved the block up and down it broke the array and the constraints would hold it.

I'm probably doing something wrong, but can anyone help?

Also, I understand I could create this family another way, but I want to understand why this array/any void array I create won't work.

Too many families for one post, pick one and I ll try help you fix it. However, you would need to upload it to save me, or anyone who wishes to help, the time to recreate a sample for you

First step is always to start with flexing the family being arrayed...

1. If you set the array to 2 vs 3 what do you expect to see? 
2. if height would change, check the formula driving the height based on number of arrayed instances
3. Not Good: when you are locking the nested family, I noticed you moving the door/void family then aligning then locking. 
4. Better: Use only align and make sure you are aligning reference plane in the nested family to a reference plane in the host (Not Geometries)

Right this was a rookie mistake. I was aligning the geometry, not the reference plane of the loaded family. It is now doing exactly as it should.

For point 3 you make, I never do this, but I wanted to show the error that appeared when I flexed.

Thanks for your help!
