Live update here is needed. 
It´s really not and Idea, but a HOT FIX!

It is highly required to be able to "Schedule" Spot coordinates and spot elevation, values and host element and names...etc...will be very very useful in a specific type of data extraction...

@Disappointed my programmers are so busy already🙈 And soon we are running out of space for addins repairing missing elements in the basic program.

Revit is old school and should really be started all over. 

But thanks anyway 

I’d love to have (like in Autocad) the possibility of adding points on polygons vertices and being able to extract that coordinates information in a schedule so we don’t have to jump from Revit to Autocad when doing civil over property lines.

YES YES YES - I have been banging on about this for a long time.

This is as simple as recording the coordinate of the origin of a family as a parameter, similar to how elevation and offset from elevation parameters already work. The east coordinate formula could be project base point east + x position relative to the project base point in the true east direction. We should not have to use Dynamo to make a static copy of a coordinate as a number parameter. This is a basic need for site layouts, especially when true north is rotated. Please add this as a feature.

I'd like to add my support to this.  for as long as I've been using Revit we've had to capture coordinate data and write it to a static parameter.  Anything that requires an 'update' prior to sharing is open to error.  The data is there, we know that because Dynamo and other apps can see it and we can tag points with spot coordinates to any of the coordinate systems.

 

Please Please Please make this data available in schedules to make it reliable.  It will make providing information for setting out so much more reliable as well as easier checks for survey updates.
