Hi guys,
How can I cut abstract, or any random shapes off a curved wall?? I looked up tutorials online, but all were focused on straight walls. Nothing for curved.. It's driving me nuts! Please help!!

P.S: I'm still a newbie in Revit Architecture.

Thnx guys :mrgreen:

If you create a "in place" family,
make it a wall category,
create a void,
then create any geometric shape you want that intersects the wall, ..
then you can cut the void out of a curved wall (using the "cut" command)....
and then finish the family.

If you are a newbie, you'll want to learn about creating basic geometry with extrude, blend, sweep, revolve and swept blend. Also, you may want to learn about choosing working planes for your sketches (using ref. planes or ref. lines)

Godd luck!
