Bonjour,

Sur un projet, tous les IFC sont exportés par rapport au point topographie.

Or, en appelant les maquettes IFC en lien dans Revit bien évidement ils ne se calent pas bien.

J’ai voulu créé un dynamo qui déplace automatique l’IFC et repositionne l’origine de l’IFC en le collant au point topo. Mais je n’ai pas réussi.

J’ai essayé ce dynamo : [Re-positionnement d'un lien IFC via Dynamo | Rechercher | Autodesk Knowledge Network](https://knowledge.autodesk.com/fr/search-result/caas/simplecontent/content/re-positionnement-dun-lien-ifc-dynamo.html)

Et aussi ce dynamo qui marche pour les liens RVT mais pas pour les IFC : [Moving a linked RVT file along the vector X and Y with Dynamo](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/moving-a-linked-rvt-file-along-the-vector-x-and-y-with-dynamo/32704)

Est ce que vous avez des astuces qui nous évitent de caler les maquettes à la main ?

Merci pour votre aide.

Hello,

On a project, all IFCs are exported relative to the survey point.  
However, by calling the IFC models as a link in Revit, of course, they do not fit well.  
I wanted to create a dynamo that automatically moves the IFC and repositions the origin of the IFC by sticking it to the topo point. But I did not succeed.  
I tried this dynamo: R[e-positioning an IFC link via Dynamo | Search | Autodesk Knowledge Network](https://knowledge.autodesk.com/fr/search-result/caas/simplecontent/content/re-positionnement-dun-lien-ifc-dynamo.html)  
And also this dynamo that works for RVT links but not for IFCs: [Moving a linked RVT file along the X and Y vector with Dynamo](https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/moving-a-linked-rvt-file-along-the-vector-x-and-y-with-dynamo/32704)  
Do you have any tips that prevent us from moving the models by hand?  
Thanks for your help.

Hi @z.haddadH5Y7V,

Welcome to the Dynamo forum.  
The language of the forum is English and it is a prerequisite for the search tool to work.  
You can use an automatic translation tool or use the [French forum](https://forum.dynamobimfra.com).  
The _Element SetLocation_ node of the _Genius Loci_ package is able to move IFC links.
