How to create section box

I’m not finding any way to create a section box using dynamo nodes.

Is there a way to create a section box around two clashing elements using nodes/ python?

or is it possible to create a section box from bounding box?

So I actually use this add-in for sectioning. I’ll select the elements and then hit Auto Section Box (shortcut:BOX).

But automating is most likely possible. Do you have a clash-detection script that you use, or how do you select the clashed content?

Can you share a screenshot of what you have so far?

View3D.SetSectionBox is GeniusLoci will do what you need.

You just need to input a bounding box box that’s derived from your 2 clashing elements, and either your active 3D view if it’s a one off, or you could use Dynamo to create a bunch of 3D views in bulk for a series of clashes.

I’m not sure what I am missing but I don’t see a View3D.SetSectionBox node from GeniusLoci

I’m using Revit 2021 and have Genius Loci (2022.2.103) installed.

Hi,

The 3DView by BoundingBox node should do the trick.

That seems to have worked! Thank you!
