Automatically cut geometry

Hi
I'm adding sink for a kitchen. Normally the cabinet should be cut otherwise it will appear in the sink.

  1. Is there a way to make the sink to automatically cut the cabinet below, as the same concept for doors and windows, they automatically make openings in the walls.
  2. It will be an advanced if the sink can make an opening also in the countertop.

Many thanks.

bin is right :

  • You have to make a New Family : a Faced Base Family in which to Nest the Sink Family
  • then , in the Faced Based Family , create a Void and Cut the support
  • Load the New Family into the Project . Now it will Cut automatically the countertop.
