Revit 2024 issues to insert nwd in model

[luisangel.gonzalezb]

Hello,

I started a new project in Revit 2024, I put coordinates and rotation the NWD does not fit even if have the same coordinates, what I observe is if I restore rotation to 0 the NWD fit, but if I put again the rotation of the project the NWD misplaced again, is something strange because in Revit 2023 this does not happen.

I did the same exercise in Revit 2023 and there is no problem in that version.

What is the source of the NWD? Did it get exported with the Shared Coordinates or Project?

[luisangel.gonzalezb]

Its a NWD created from an NWF, the models are integration of different software's, like Inventor, Tekla and Revit. Its not a native file created from Revit, all have oriented corrected on the true north and coordinate correctly in each software. This is a Revit 2024 problem which change the position of the nwd at the moment of put the true north rotation.

Have you tried to link it in using shared coordinates?

[luisangel.gonzalezb]

Yes, bot files fit in coordinates when true north rotation is 0, and misplaced when enter the true north rotation, the problem not are the coordinates because in Revit 2023 this problem doesn't happen.

My point is if you are linking using shared coordinates then there are no reasons to enter true north rotation.

This only will work when the project is aligned with the XY axis, when we coordinate a project we use shared coordinates and true north degree, to work in Revit we need to specify a survey point to determine the coordinates and a true north degree to specify orientation, this will help us to create project north orientation, and that Is what we use to create orthogonal views, that facilitate the creations of drawings.
