Facing issue while giving input from link models

[balastarry]

Hi, I am trying to place the light fixture but if I gave the “face” input from link models it doesn’t work. Is there any other ways to gave the input from link models

@Draxl_Andreas I used bimorph nodes to get the faces the ceiling but if I gave that input it doesn’t work. I get face output from Linkelement.face node after that I extracted the bottom face.

@balastarry ,

can you check list depth by face and point @L2

[balastarry]

I tried that one, still same result

[Draxl_Andreas]

@balastarry ,

it works this way! check whether your family is workplane based!

[balastarry]

@Draxl_Andreas I tried your method, For me its not working will suggest any idea

[Draxl_Andreas]

@balastarry ,

Are you indexing right? check if you have the right surface!

you can sort them by area f.e.

I gave bottom face only

[Draxl_Andreas]

Did you check also that the family has the right settings?

f.e. not vertical placed, not workplane, is it even surface based a.s.o.
@balastarry

ceiling has a thickness?

Hi @Draxl_Andreas the method you previously suggested is working fine with sample project which I tested, But if I folllow the same procedure for some other projects its not working at the last node i.e. Family instance by face and point node.

@balastarry , i mean depth a layer with a construction depth

[balastarry]

I didn’t get your point
