Project Base Point Angle rotation

Hello 

I am trying to match my structural co-ordinates with the arch model. I have acquired co-ordinates and linked in the structural model into Arch and moved the structural model and saved back the co-ordinates. As you can see everything matches except for the angle. I have tried rotating the north, but unfortunately the whole model rotates and lands in the wrong location when I link in. How do I match the angle?

Thanks in advance

Your workflow is conflicting.  Either acquiring coordinates or publishing coordinates, not both.  Do it again using these steps:

 

- Unlink structural model

- Manage > Coordinates > Reset Shared Coordinates

- Link Structural model in center to center > Move + Rotate it to align with your model

- Acquire Coordinates

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I am trying to link in Arch model (which has correct coordinates) into structural model.
