generic model adaptive length - consistent profile

I'd like to make a generic model family (not modelled in place) that has ribs at 19mm, but the length of each panel can change within the project.  Lengths will most likely be between 600-900mm.  There's a snapshot of the basic profile below, but the lengths will vary throughout the project.  How can I change the length and keep the rib at 19mm without making lots of families?  Ultimately, I'd then like to be able to import this into a door family as we're using this profile for cupboard doors.  Many thanks in advance!!

There are more than a couple of ways to model such panels...most straightforward is

  • Model a face based void that cuts the host
  • Nest the void into the panel family (a Generic Model or Line based generic model) and host it on the face of the panel/extrusion, align, lock and array it
  • Use append to end for the array and lock and constrain the first 2 instances
  • formulate the array based on the length = roundup(Length/Rib Width)

Depending on the number of arrayed ribs, such family can be too much for a model to digest/process...in such case the lighter version would be either using a curtain wall or a handrail to model it

Below is the Curtain wall version using mullions...

Have you considered doing this via a Curtain Wall?

Thanks for the video.  I think I missed a step as the void isn't cutting the generic model.  I created 2 new families - one for the void rib, and a line based generic model for the panel.  Any ideas?  Would prefer nutting it out with generic model rather than curtain wall...

You need to create the void in a separate family...

  • For the void use a generic model face based... the void must be properly locked and constrained and should cut the host in this one
  • Once you load the above into the generic model, place it on the extrusion and it will cut
