I’m reaching out for your help regarding an issue we’re encountering while using Speckle for an Architecture class assignment. The problem arises when importing a model from Speckle into Revit 2025. On my device, the model appears as expected (the first image below). However, when my friend imports the same model on their device, it looks completely different (see the second image).
We are both using Revit 2025 and the latest version of the Speckle Revit Connector .
Could this discrepancy be caused by specific configurations or settings that we might have overlooked? Are there any troubleshooting steps we can take to identify the root cause of this issue?
Additionally, if more information or context is needed to better understand the problem, please let me know what details would be helpful, and I’ll provide them promptly.
Thanks for getting back to me. I’ve uploaded the Revit file. Is it not typical for such problems to occur? could it be because the shaft placement or type import?
Sorry for the late reply, and thanks for your help! The roof now imports correctly and no longer has a weird placement. However, it seems that the loaded model in my friend’s Revit is no longer strongly typed—all elements appear as generic models. For example, in the first image [my friend’s Revit], the walls don’t have complete parameters like they do in the second image [my Revit].
Is this the expected behavior in Revit for now, and is it already explained in the Next-Gen Connector of Revit?
This is the expected behaviour of of our first phase next gen connectors received in Revit including from Revit.
This isn’t the end of development of the connectors but following our public roadmap for them. But not all applications will cover all scenarios - we’ve discovered it isn’t what anyone wants enough to jump through impossible hoops.
@clrkng refers to the Revit to Revit endgame as „High-Quality“ design coordination
In the high-quality geometry version of Design Coordination, you can publish and load models as native objects in your receiving application. It’s ideal for real-time collaboration on the same model across different tools.
Oh, okay, got it! Thanks for your help so far, I truly appreciate it. Speckle is really interesting, I’m looking forward to the next updates and future improvements
