You must activate the Room Bounding type property on the linked model itself to be able to place spaces in a linked model.
- If you do not already have a linked model, use the instructions in
Link One Model to Another to link models.
- In a plan view of the host model, select the linked model.
The status bar displays the following:
RVT Links: Linked Revit Model: <model name>.
- In the Properties palette, click
(Type Properties).
- In the Type Properties dialog, select Room Bounding (it is deselected by default).
- Click OK.
Note: You cannot use IFC-based curtain elements to define rooms. If needed, add room separation lines along their boundaries. See
Add a Room Separation Line.
