I have a project that I'm trying to import into Revit from Advance Steel using the Advanced Steel extension for Revit. Whenever I import it though, it seems that almost every member I shortened using the "cut at object" command in Advance Steel is ignored by the importer. I receive a waring from Revit that all cuts with voids will be ignored when importing. When I recreate these beams by without using any cutting tools, they imported just fine.
My main concern about this isn't as much about simple beams since I can just avoid cutting them, but I don't know how else I'd model something like a cross brace without using a cutting command in Advance Steel before exporting. That said, all the cross braces I modeled and used a plate connector for appeared in Revit just fine. These were also shortened in the same manner.
Is this something I missed on the extension, or is it due to poor workflow in Advance Steel? I've only been working with Advance Steel for a week, so I wouldn't be surprised if I've been using workflows in ways that they weren't entirely intended to be. Any help is appreciated.
I attached screenshots of the Advanced Steel model and the Imported result in Revit.
