Hi,

I am having an issue inserting a .dwg file into Revit and cant find an answer online. 

When I link or insert my .dwg file, it appears completely wrong. The only way I can describe it is that every line, block, text item etc. has lost its ‘Y coordinates’. So everything is bunched along the x axis.

 

Unfortunately the drawing is confidential so I cant upload the file but I’ve attached a screen shot of what the inserted dwg looks like. Hopefully some one can help.

Thanks in advance

I believe your problem may be where you are inserting the CAD drawing from.  Do it from a plan view and make sure you haven't set a different work plane.
