Ability to phase wall openings (demolishing in new phase)

Ability to phase wall openings (demolishing in new phase)

Creating an existing wall opening, that in the new phase gets filled up (demolished from existing phase).  Now i have to make an empty door family to create a void that can be phased.

The ability to phase openings in floors, walls, faces.  You can do it with the shaft opening but it continues to cut elements that are in a diffent phase.  So they need to fix shaft phases too.  I had to create a void family for round and square openings so that I could show new hole being cut in an existing floor as demolished.  I think the door and window opening can do this in walls though.

I'm surprised this isn't higher on the list. If you do a quick google search one finds dozens of topics with complaints about this issue...?

I'd like to add that that for us this would apply to all opening tools (also the shaft tool for example).

 

That way we could add a new elevator shaft in an existing building.

Opening cuts should be placeable in an element created in another phase.

Öffnungen in Wänden, Geschossdecken oder Dächern übernehmen immer die Phasen des Basisbauteils.

Für Umbauplanungen wäre es von Vorteil, wenn die Phasen einer Öffnung separat steuerbar wären.
So könnten Öffnungen, die entstehen oder verfüllt werden soll, zu einem anderen Zeitpunkt geplant werden ohne das ein gesondertes Füllelement manuell erzeugt werden muss.

This is still a thing? the oldest post i saw was from 2012. Too overpriced software if they aren't able to do phasing in a normal way, it is not ok how dev is slow.

Am I the first one to have problems working with wall openings and phases? Why is that I can't assign a wall opening to an existing, demo, or new construction phase? This makes wall opening tool useless in a complex project with existing and new elements. Your comments are welcome. I think the Revit team should address this - it's a big one.

While we are at it. Besides phasing openings such as wall openings, dormers etc should have the option room bounding.

Yes, I would also like to see the Openings tools be able to be phased.
