In Revit I have wall families that have repeating elements (Array) for which the length can be decided based on multiple strategies, such as a fixed amount or a fixed length with the first or last element potentially diverging slightly.
In these walls doors can be hosted, but that means that the segment of the wall that has the door, should remain whole, i.e. as if that segment was configured to be fixed amount of 1. Because these segments, before the door, the door, after the door, can have different strategies, I want to split the wall based on the door placement. That way I get a connected wall of 3 segments, and I can configure the strategy as part of the instance parameters of each segment, as they are now connected, but separate wall elements.
[before door (count 2): [50%][50%]][with door (count 1): [100%]][after door (length 800mm): [800mm][800mm][806mm]]
Ideally I would be able to have Revit split the wall automatically after placement of the door, but I doubt this can be done without having to resort to the API, can it? I could also just use the Split Element tool twice, but it does not seem to snap to the door frame. And without snapping, splitting the wall would become prone to human error, i.e. being slightly off and thus imprecise.
So my question comes down to, how can I split a wall based on door placement in a precise and as automated way as possible without having to resort to writing a Dynamo script or Revit Add-in?
