Hey All - 

Wwe are currently working on interior renderings with a linked core and shell model.The core and shell model contains 700+ light fixtures!

When I go to render my view, Revit wants to rendering all fixtures in the core and shell model. When I acutal only need the 7 studio lights I have acutally place in my model. 

How do I turn off / control the light fixtures in the linked core and shell model to not render? Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

i think u can turn off the lighting fixtures in the linked model from the visibility graphics >>>>> revit links >>>> go to your link and change display setting make it custom and then switch to model categories and turn off the lightning fixtures , then u will only have your studio lights nothing from the linked file , if u want further control over the lightning fixtures types or instances then you will have to set filters
