The SolidSolidCutUtils type exposes the following members.

Methods
Name Description
Public method Static member AddCutBetweenSolids(Document, Element, Element) Adds a solid-solid cut for the two elements.
Public method Static member AddCutBetweenSolids(Document, Element, Element, Boolean) Adds a solid-solid cut for the two elements with the option to control splitting of faces of the cutting solid.
Public method Static member CanElementCutElement Verifies if the cutting element can add a solid cut to the target element.
Public method Static member CutExistsBetweenElements Checks that if there is a solid-solid cut between two elements.
Public method Static member GetCuttingSolids Gets all the solids which cut the input element.
Public method Static member GetSolidsBeingCut Get all the solids which are cut by the input element.
Public method Static member IsAllowedForSolidCut Validates that the element is eligible for a solid-solid cut.
Public method Static member IsElementFromAppropriateContext Validates that the element is from an appropriate document.
Public method Static member RemoveCutBetweenSolids Removes the solid-solid cut between the two elements if it exists.
Public method Static member SplitFacesOfCuttingSolid Causes the faces of the cutting element where it intersects the element it is cutting to be split or unsplit.

Remarks
These utilities are applicable for the generic forms, geometry combinations and family instances in conceptual model, pattern based curtain panel, or adaptive component families, and family instances which are permitted to participate in joining in projects. Thus, for example, a beam cannot cut a wall (as the wall is not a family instance) in projects. Nor can a steel beam participate in cutting another family (because steel beams do not participate in joining).
