Shared Coordinates - Error Project Location

[michaldengusiak]

This is quite complex but I will try to document the whole process…
I am struggling a bit with the link model and use of shared coordinates.
I linked the Architect model and used Shared Coordintas when setting up my model. I my model I defined the scope box.
Unfortunately, they do not match when pulling to Rhino → so I want to transform my scope box, to be able to filter element by scopebox.

Here we can see scopebox and linked model. *Of course this is correct in Revit.

I tried to Query Project location from linked model but got this error:

1. Why I do have two shared Sites in Query Shared Sites component - what is the difference?
2. seems I have some valid data in Shared Site… do I need to query one from a linked model or from my active document?

so I checked in my Revit to display site data and Report Shared Coordinates from Linked Model and this is what we have. * you can see my scopebox in green

I checked in Revit if I have the same coordinate system

How should I query linked elements to have them in the same location as scopebox in my model or do I miss some step?

To get your ‘Project Location’ you can do something like this.

Revit Links Coordinates

Just wondering how to adjust the coordinates from linked models? They seem to use project base point for site and building model, therefore they are off. What can I do to realign? Cheers [image]

Isolating sections of large 3D elements within revit models

The most similar to what you describe is combine Selectable In View Filter with BoundingBox Filter like this. Unfortunately this only works with non linked elements. [image] To workaround this you will need to Query Elements into the linked documents but using a transformed version of your selection box into Linked Instance coordinates.

Awesome!
I need to revisit all of this.
Looks like a lot of the issues have been addressed.
Thanks!
