Cannot do a section cut on a Furniture family object

Hi guys,

I created a bar (furniture family) and loaded into a project. I want to do a details drawing of that bar so I tried to do a section cut of the bar within that project but the section doesn't cut through. 

Here is the bar (bar details) and how it look in the project (bar in the model) and the section view  (section cut) just shows the outside of the bar (not the cut through the interior).  I tried a lot of things but nothing seems work.

Thanks guys,

Tu Anh

Furniture objects cannot be cut by the view cutplane. I've made diagram a while back to illustrate the behavior of different categories when they intersect with the cutplane.

 

One option is to change the family category to casework or generic model.

You're welcome.

 

I'm not sure whether you are familiar with Revit Ideas. It's a place where people can post and vote for feature ideas. There's a popular idea on there about being able to change the cutting behavior on a per family bases. If this is something you'd like to see, you can add your vote:

Since version Revit 2023, you can do a section cut on Furniture family.

Go inside "Family Category Parameters" and check "Enable Cutting in Views".
