How to move the Sun Path up to height of Project Base Point?

Hi Guys,

 

This is annoying - does anyone know what I'm doing wrong / if this is possible?

The sun path seems to be "locked" to the Revit internal Origin, which makes using the sun path COMPLETELY useless in 3D when the Project Basepoint isn't set to 0,0 (in our case it's 38.9m in Berlin). Moving the Survey Point Up also does nothing.

Many thanks in advance!

Cheers,

 

M

I agree with @barthbradley 

But I think your problem is the way you set project point.

I think you have to use Relocate Project command from Manage tab - Position in stead to move project point.

Then enable Sun path and set ground plane at level in Sun Settings.

TL/DR : Solved by restarting Revit

Good morning @barthbradley @kostask_oionei 

Many thanks for your replies - I had tried this before and it didn't work...

However, after closing revit and opening it again (you've got to be f***ing kidding me right?) the sun path is in the correct position:

As I said, many thanks!
