Acquiring and Publishing Coordinates

In general, you want to acquire coordinates from a linked model (such as a site) if you are working in a building model file. If you are working in the site model, you want to publish coordinates from the site model to linked building models.

In either case, you acquire or publish coordinates while you are in a host model.

Topics in this section
  • Acquire Coordinates
    When you acquire coordinates from a linked model or file, the coordinates of the linked model establish the shared coordinate system of the host model.
  • Publish Coordinates
    When you publish shared coordinates from a host model to a linked model, the linked model is updated with the new coordinates.
  • Reset Shared Coordinates
    Remove all shared coordinates and relationships in the host model.
  • Acquire or Publish Using Linked Instance Properties
    When using shared coordinates to position linked models in a host model, you can use properties of a linked model to acquire (pull) or publish (push) coordinates between the models, as required.
  • Acquire Shared Coordinates When Using Revit Cloud Worksharing
    Use the Acquire command to share coordinates between files in the cloud when the Publish command is disabled. This procedure follows a sample scenario. It consists of a single project with three separate sites defined in this project. Separate models are used for each of the defined sites.
