Problems with copy/monitor in lightning fixtures

Anonymous

Hello 

I'm having a hard time doing the electrical model in Revit 2018 because I have created the lightning fixtures in the architectural model for rendering purposes and when I link the architectural model to the Electrical one and do the copy/monitor tool for the lightning fixtures revit creates a copy of some light fixtures upside down and not the exact family that I was using. I double check the architectural model in case I put the lights in the wrong direction there and is allright. I'll post a photo of what is going on. 

 

Thank you so much for your help Capture.PNG

No, they are some of the default light families that came with revit

 Sounds like a workplane hosting issue. Check the lights in the Architectural Model and verify they are on the underside surface of the floor/ceiling they are attached to. Also, toggling the light fixture's Flip Workplane icon can reveal whether or not they are hosted correctly.  When you click on it, the light fixture should mirror-flip. 

 

...out of curiosity, what OOTB Light Fixture is it?
