Concept model import update???

Does anyone know how to update a changed model from Sketchup that has been imported into the Conceptual Mass editor. The need is to reflect changes to this Sketchup file that is used in the Massing editor.

It's harder to understand what people are saying than

it is to understand Revit concepts.

 

"Does anyone know how to update a changed model

from Sketchup that has been imported into the

Conceptual Mass editor."

 

What exactly is a "changed model" from SketchUp?

In the Conceptual Mass Editor of Revit you can only Import a CAD (including Sketchup) file. The idea is to import a Sketchup model into the Mass editor and when it changes in Sketchup to reimport it in a manner of replacement. This is the issue.

The Sketchup model changes in Sketchup and I would like to reimport it in a manner of replacement. This is the issue.

if the major geometry (base of the mass, faces etc.) remains same, you can reimport it and replace it with previous one.

I guess you have created some BY FACE elements in Revit and they should  be updated as face/mass changes.
