The input point lies outside of Revit design limits

[johan_neethling9LA52]

I have an application which generates precast tunnel segments and places them along an alignment. This application worked for Revit 2017.

I am trying to port it to Revit 2024. Beyond a certain range from the origin, I am getting the following error when creating planes, typically with:

Plane oPlane = Plane.CreateByNormalAndOrigin(normal, oIntersection);

Error:

Autodesk.Revit.Exceptions.ArgumentException: 'The input point lies outside of Revit design limits.

The distance from the origin seems to vary, but here is a typical value from the origin:

7,21122593 mile
11,60534318 km

However the oficial Revit limit is 10 miles or 16 km, see:

Does anybody know what the problem here is?

Dear Johan,

I repeat what I just said to Dirk in his thread and you in your previous thread on the same topic:

• https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-api-forum/the-input-point-lies-outside-of-revit-design-limits/m...

Oh dear, that sounds problematic. I will gladly discuss this with the development team. Can you share a complete minimal reproducible case for them to analyse, demonstrating the issue, throwing the exception and showing exactly how your normal vector and origin point are defined?

Thank you.
