Does displacement elements works in a project site with linked files???

[jjjoao2]

Hi everyone,

I have been working on a site file (mother file) with two linked files (buildings).

In one of the linked files, i´ve just developed a furniture for the bathroom and created an imagem with the displacement elements to show to the client.

But now, working in the site file (mother file) and currently developing the sheets, i found myself unable to insert / import that displacemente element created in the linked file.

Is there a solution for it?

I also realized that even working with the scope box mode for the linked files (buildings), i can generate the plans and elevations of the objects but i cannot generate a 3D image from that object. 
Any thoughts on this?

Sounds like you want display a Linked Model By Linked View

@barthbradley already tried but it didnt work.

It should work.  You have View in the Linked Project that shows Displaced Elements and you want to show this View in the Parent Project. Is that correct?

@barthbradley , yes, thats correct.

What View is it?  If it is a 3D View that shows the Displaced Elements, then in the Parent Project, go to a 3D View, open  the VGOs, go to the Revit Links Tab and set the BY LINKED VIEW

Depending on the size of these 2 Projects, you can Post them here and I can take a look at them to see what's going on.
