I hope I am just missing something, but I am trying to apply an on/off visibility parameter to a void extrusion in a column and a beam family. When I select the extrusion and go to the Element Properties the only options I get are for the start and end offsets, but in the extrusion they are cutting I have all of the standard element options available to me. I obviously don't expect a void to have material options since it is nothingness, but it would be nice to determine if they are visible or not. It seems the only solution would be to make an extrusion to match the shape of the void extrusion and thickness of the face being cut and apply a parameter to that... which seems like a pretty bass-ackwards solution.
What I am doing is making some Unistrut families and I would like to compile the different pierced channel options into one family so if it needs a different slot, or none at all, etc I can just change the type like you should be able to.
