Edit boundary for Pinned element

[tw_nordic]

The purpose of pinning elements, according to the hoverover note, is "Prevent or allow change of element position". I still think I should be able to edit the boundary of a floor event while pinned, for instance in order to add a hole for a cutout. This wouldn't change the element position, just let med control the object geometry in its current place.

same for toposolids, filled regions etc...

Whether changing the boundary sketch also changes the position of an element depends on extents of the modification. Say you edit a sketch from 50x20 metres to 50.5x20.5 metres, would that not affect the (well hidden) position of element?

Perhaps this could be covered with a different kind of override? My opinion is that the value of pinning prevents accidental changes. What if you could hold some combination of modifier keys to temporarily override the pinned state for an action? something like [CTRL]+[SHIFT]+Double Click overrides the pin and launches the Sketch Editor, and restores the pinned state when you commit? I feel like this would maintain the value of pinning while giving you the quick edit ability you are wanting, and be a more global change that I feel like Revit currently lacks (separate rant but Revit feel like a million little changes like OP's request that aren't consistent across all of the tools)

Actually, a pinned object like floor slab will in a certain sense change its position if the type is changed - which is allowed today, even for pinned objects.
