Hi all,
I'm new to Revit but i'm struggling with a linked DGN file. When i link the file into Revit, the drawing won't be straight, instead would rotate clockwise about 45 degree. After i rotate the drawing back in position, Revit complains about slightly off axis when i do my grid lines or trace over the drawing?
What i'm missing?
Thank you....

Update with regards to the attached Revit message when linking CAD. Problem solved, all i had to do is open the dwg in autocad, clean it up and use WBLCOK.
