Hi guys, i’ve created this simple workflow to setting up a family and a multicategory in dynamo to represent my geodesic points in the field, and it works wonders, till I move the project base point to anywhere…
When i move it, it feels to me that dynamo do not insta-follow this change, keeping its base WCS. but when I try to change my coordinate system, it doesn’t seen to be aligned (on revit) with my base point either… Any thoughts?
Dynamo’s 0,0,0 aligns with Revit’s 0,0,0
There are a few translations nodes out there like the GeniusLoci one.
Lets see what you come up with
When i moved my base point, it didn’t became a “new” (0,0,0); The coordinates now are something like (EEE,SSS,ZZZ), and when I manually input one of these elements to (0,0,0), this element is created far away from my moved base point, but not exactly at a vector distance of (EEE-0, SSS-0, ZZZ-0), but at a different one.
Also, i didn’t find any translation node at GeniusLoci, but i’m using revit 2019.2 with dynamo 1.3.4.6666, and can’t install the most up-to-date package from them, so I was looking at a way to do it without custom nodes.
Just to contextualize, I move my base point bc I work with georeferenced pointcloud, and if the distance between my base point and the “space” where i’m working is to huge (which is always true, something like (x = 323390.708 ; y= 7393902.042 ; z = 730.620)), revit start to bug, so I need to move it.
