Dear guys, I have updated today Rhino Inside from v1.13.8494.18380 to the v1.13.8510.35816. Add component (Location) is always placing the family in horizontal. It was working perfectly till yesterday. I open the same file, but is not working as expected. Revit 2023.1 I have installed the last…

Not sure if this is the version or a different one, but in the new version of RiR, there is a new component called Add Component (Workplane) different fron the Add Component (Location), maybe that is what’s causing the issue

Hi Jelis, can you post a bigger screenshot (where the location is coming from) or the gh file? Is the family work plane based? Thanks.

Many Thanks. Definitely! I didn’t realised, now Add Component (Location) is just working with level-based families, for plane-based families Add Component (Workplane) will do the trick. It’s working as expected now. Cheers.

Hi Mohamed, I solved the same problem as stated. But after the new update, I can’t release element. I can release elements when using “add component (location)”. This issue occurs when using “Add component (work plane)”. Do you have any information on this?

I tried it with latest public release and having the same issue actually, after releasing the elements they still get deleted after disconnecting the wires from the node. So looping in @kike @Japhy to check

Isn’t there anymore the possibility of placing a family according to a plane without a plane-base family, as before? It’s hard to manage now already placed family instances (just level-based families can be rotated freely). It was super handy with older RiR versions! Any possibility of coming back…

You can still provide a rotated Rhino/GH plane for the Add Component (Location) and it will work as normal for non-workplane based families… You will only face issues if you try placing a workplane based family using the Add Component (Location). And you will also get a warning to remind you if you…

Unless this problem is solved, the use of components becomes inefficient. Please assist on this issue.

These components are different to allow access to the change workplane workflows. As requested here… [image] Using Add Component does not correctly associate with reference plane Revit Barden00, In your case the Level Parameter is available to Get/Set [image]

Hi Japhy, My problem is that when I use the workplane component I can’t release the elements.
