experiencing two problems with cut opening tool....

cut opening tool.... when a duct passes through a wall and there is a fire damper in the wall, the penetration size created by the opening tool is the size of the duct, not the fire damper. Can this be resolved? also, when we run an interference check, it doesn't seem to pick up interferences from linked IFC files into our model?

    Currently the fix for IFC's is to link the (automatic) converted RVT instead of the IFC file. Why this limitation is in place could be due to api-limitations, we are investigating this further. The fire damper (duct accesoire) indeed doesn't function correctly at this moment. We'll discuss this with Product Management and come back to you next week.
