Hi,

Quick question.

I have a site model which I Revit link in three buildings, I move them into place and publish the positions to their files.

I know this has worked because if I unload them, and then relink them to Shared Co-ordinates they fall into the correct position.

But when I open the individual building file, and select orientation there is no change between true north and project north eventhough they were rotated in the site model.

Does publish co-ordinates to a building model affecct true north (am I missing a setting or something??)

Thanks.

Ok, I've managed to answer my own post!

I need to click on Manage - Location for the building model to use the shared co-ordates! And then true north works!
