Boolean operation with poser model

Anonymous
Not applicable
Any suggestion, how to get poser model (hand) work in boolean operation?
Model itself imported fine to AC and it looks ok, but when I try to cut a part of the wall with it, nothing happens.
Or any idea or another way to make hands' mark in concrete (by modelling it)?

The command is WALLNICHE or CUTFORM. Are these new in ArchiCAD 10?


I'm thinking that our poster needs to replicate a hand with thin slabs to form a contour of the hand - a flapjack hand - and tilt it upward when saving as an object, using the object to SEO the wall.

But good luck getting this amount of definition:

Right - that's what I meant. Save part of the body as a part. Then save the part with a 'wallniche' ID as a window/niche. Then whack it into the wall.

It should have the same geometry as the original part, but I am probably just dreaming that it would work.
