That is because they are reading the level to different points in one model they are reading with respect to Project Point and the other model to Shared...

To solve this you need to

1. either reset your levels by selecting the odd ones and changing their Elevation Base property;
2. OR...use the shared coordinates ... Either publish the coord to the Link or Aquire them from Link depending on which of the two models is the one with the right coordinates and levels to adopt.

hi RDAOU,

Thanks for adding valuable input  to this post,

first time working within collaborative environment.

I linked model by shared coordinates, my new copy monitored levels didnt matched so I edited level property from Project base to survey point then my all levels matched with Architects level.

should I b linking arch model as origin to origin or by shared coordinates? whats the advantage over the other. whts the correct workflow to work with architects model so if the levels later changed by architect it should automatically update??

Thanks in advance

@Anonymous should use shared coordinates, you may check it here previous threads. thanks

If you are using shared parameters already, and you have set your points correctly then shared parameters is the right way to go. Moreover; Levels shouldn't differ if shared coordinates are set correctly and and you published/aquired coordinates to/from all linked files as deemed necessary

Only time levels mess up is

• You messed up with the level properties
• you uncliped and relocated survey point(S) and didnt publish/acquire
