I'm at a point in the project where I would like to sort this out before we start moving too far into the drawings and am even considering simply setting up a new file.
As far as I can tell, it doesn't matter where I place the "Project Base Point" or "Survey Point" if I insert a dwg or revit file using "origin to origin" they always come in at the "startup location". Similarly, if I set up a new Revit file with the "startup location" aligned to the origin in the survey and consultant files, I cannot copy and past from the old project to the new using "paste aligned" because it ignores the "Project Base Point" and "Survey Point" and pastes at the "startup location". Does this sound right or am I missing something?
