Split two geometries

Hi,

I would like to ask if someone could help me solve the problem of splitting a geometry.

I have one surface (horizontal) that I want to split with a polysurface (vertical surface from extruded curves and joined surfaces).

I used geometry.split and geometry.intersect nodes, but I cannot obtain the horizontal surface divided in rectangles.

Could you please tell me what is the best approach to do it?

Many thanks.

@Julia_Ratajczak ,

i think split means cut… :wink:

Hello,
are your surfaces in contact at all points?
Sv and Sh



edit:
your concern must probably come that your vertical surfaces do not form closed meshes without overflowing lines (they seem to be like a kind of grating), and suddenly dynamo cannot intervene.
Afterwards, it is necessary that a person much more competent than me affirms or disaffirms my analysis.

Hello om not sure geometry split ootb works with polysurface not at dyn now Will take a look later

Hi Andreas,

thank you! Yes, I mean cut:)
I tried as you suggested, but I get strange surface division…


It seems that some cutting surface does not cut the horizontal surface…

Hi Christian,

yes both surfaces are in contact at all points. I finally cut the surface, but the division is still not like I would like to be:

We could see your vertical surfaces
is it a single polysurface or not?

There are 4 polysyrfaces.

Hello,

Thank you very much for this solution.
Indeed, this node Geometry.SplitByTools works perfectly.
Thank you!

Have a nice day!

glad it work for you ;),yes its had always been an issue with multiple split with the ootb node…

When cutting geometries get complex, the node does its best
