Dynamo 1.2
Revit 2016
I am working on a development that has 3 towers and a podium. The Revit workflow is setup so that the podium is the central, and each tower is an individual link. I have been using dynamo to create conceptual massing in each tower file, and here is where my problem lies:
Because the 4 links that make up the overall project are oriented to the same origin, each tower in revit is located different to the dynamo origin point (see attached picture).
The Left set of elements are oriented to the dynamo origin point, whereas the right mass is where the tower is located in the revit file.
My Solution: Find the x and y difference between the two, and just translate my geometry by the given amount before importing the geometry into Revit.
This solution is a band-aid fix, but I need a real solution now, as the project is becoming more complex.
My Question:
Is it possible to change the origin point of dynamo so that my 0,0,0 in dynamo aligns correctly with the base of the tower to avoid the annoyance of just shifting everything after creating it?
