if revit lt 2024 has no mass elements how do you create a mass void to cut a toposolid?

especially nuts if you no longer can use pads.

There was just a post about this yesterday. Several solutions were listed.

 

I agree that this deserves a dedicated tool and hopefully they put one back in soon (ideally 24.1), but we don't need a bunch of duplicate posts on it.

Same approaches as you would cut a floor.

OK I will change this slightly.

How do you create a toposolid in LT 2014 without first creating a toposurface in LT 2023?

can't seem to create it from sketch.

Maybe we need a dedicated LT blog for the plebs.

- Create from an imported DWG or a point file

- Create from sketch similarly to create a floor or roof, with boundary and slope arrows, or edit sub-elements (not sure if LT can do this though)

This is what I did, after toposolid is formed, create an subelement "add point" with elevation base set to "current Level.  Ideally snap add points to building slab or foundation for accuracy.  Select and "Edit Sketch" of the toposoid and just purple line out the building outline.
