[image] trying to move a model base point by 812,000,000 but I keep getting this error. I have attached my dynamo script so far set project base point.dyn (24.4 KB)

That is an inbuilt limit in Revit. Typical practice is to set the PBP coordinates to desired number and use relativity instead of relying on internal origin.

how can I do so maybe shed some light or explain a bit more I read it a couple of times but I was clueless !! thanks for your help as usual

[image] snapshot of code I guess you could explain on it

It has nothing to do with dynamo. You literally can not move the project base point in revit that far away from the model origin as it says. As far as i know this is a hard programmed constraint. Usually firms will use the specify coordinates tool instead to keep the base point neae the model origi…

hmmm okay will try to do so :sunglasses:: thanks for help appreciate it really.

@ahmed.aelgammal , here was a similar issue… [image] Move the Internal Project Origin keeping geometry in same place than before Revit Thats a sensetiv topic… …when you mess up Projectorigin, you can just move all Elements to the desiered place including 2D-E…
