Video: Use Coordination Models
Insert coordination models from Navisworks® into Revit to coordinate your design with teams who use different software.
Transparency for Coordination Models
After linking a coordination model into a Revit model, use the Visibility/Graphics dialog to define its visibility and transparency. Use the transparency setting to distinguish the coordination model from the Revit model.
Link a Coordination Model
Link a file from Navisworks® or coordination model views from Forma Data Management and use them as a reference for a Revit model, providing context for the design.
Place Multiple Instances of a Coordination Model
After adding a coordination model, you can place multiple instances to add context to your design.
Manage Coordination Models
When using a coordination model as a reference for your Revit model, you can manage the link to the coordination model as needed.
Coordination Model Changes
The Coordination Model Changes option allows a quick visualization of the changed coordination model objects between two versions of a linked coordination model from Forma Data Management.
Use Snap Points for Coordination Models
Use snap points to easily model in context, to measure between two references based on the coordination model points, or to better position the coordination model.
Coordination Model Graphical Appearance and Objects Visibility Control
Starting with the Revit 2026 release, you can control the graphical appearance and objects visibility of the coordination model as follows:
