    Default Apply Scope Box to only a linked model

    HI! I have a model from a consultant and am linking it into my model. I only want to see part of it. Is there a way to link it to my model and specify maybe a scope box that applies only to that linked model? Or is there another way you suggest? The model is a Rhino model so I can't select individual parts of it. Thank you!!!

    You could do that via worksets if it was a normal revit link, but it's a Rhino model.
    Scope box applies to everything so won't really work.
    Only other option is open the link and save it as something else and delete what you don't want.

    I would try linking the Rhino into a blank revit model. Use a scope box or crop the view and name the view. Then link that revit model into yours and use the specific view you named as the "linked view" (it is under VG graphics, Revit Links, Display settings-Custom, Click the Custom circle and then set Linked View to the view you named in the other model. Go thru all the other items on that dialog box such as View filters, View range, Phase etc. and set them all to "BY LINKED VIEW". Let me know if that worked.
