How do I work with hotlinks?

[LeeJaeYoung]

I need to connect a hotlink like this.
I know it's wrong.
How do I connect a hotlink to solve this?

Have a look at this document for all you could ever want to know about hotlinking strategies.   I’m thinking Iceberg is probably going to be your best bet here.

@scottjm ,

I have removed the link to the hotlink PDF that you posted.

I am not sure if the link would work for SSA customers only, but best not take the risk.

It clearly states on the second page...

Thank you for helping, but best to just post a link to where the document can be obtained.

Which is in the E-book section of the Graphisoft Learning portal.

Is it too complicated to explain?
What is this?

Is it too complicated to explain?
This is a question of how you are doing because there is no overlap in autocad and Revit.

The description of hotlinks in this book is of no use to me.
I made 7 buildings.(building 1~7.pln)
But you have to collect these buildings. With underground parking..(all building.pln)
However, since it is a mountain, the starting position and height of each building are different.
So you cannot create a building section in all building.pln.
(It would be possible if the story was drawn by hand... or if the story could be dragged for each section...)

So I have to collect one building and an underground parking lot.
For the cross-sections that are expressed up to the underground parking lot ....

unit.mod -> building 1.pln -> full building 1.pln <- basement parking.pln
full building 1.pln has gdl issues.

The question is here.

It is connected to the content about overlap that I asked about last time.

That is the E-book section of the Graphisoft Learn portal.

The 3rd item is the hotllink PDF that Scott was mentioning.

If you have an SSA or FORWARD service agreement with Graphisoft, then it is free with the "SSA_ACCESS" code - otherwise you have to pay.

Login to the Learn portal using your Graphisoft ID.

You can then "Purchase" the PDF (don't use 'enter access code - doesn't work for me at least).

Enter the discount coupon "SSA_ACCESS" (without the quotes) and apply it.

It should now be free and you can purchase it.

You will get a notification with a link to download the file.

Did you read what I wrote?

[Barry Kelly]

I am not a hotlink expert - I rarely use them.

So if anyone want to correct me - please feel free.

'Unit Module' into' Building' is no problem.

'Building' into 'All' is no problem and that will bring in the 'Unit Modules' as well.

'Base Parking' into 'All' is no problem.

'Base Parking' into' Building' is no problem, but you are then linking 8 x 'Building' into 'All' that already has the 'Base Parking' in it.

So to me you are getting 9 copies of 'Base Parking' in the 'All' file.

I would skip 'All' completely and just link the 'Buildings' into 'Base Parking'.

Don't link the "Base Parking' into the 'Building' modules either.

Each 'Building' hotlink can have its own master layer.

That way you can turn each 'Building' on individually on the 'Base Parking' (by turning the other 'Building' master layers off), or you can show all of the 'Building' modules by turning all of the 'Building' master layers on.

That is how I would do it.

I wasn't answering what your were asking about hotlink modules (although I have attempted to now).

I was replying to the question you asked about the Learn portal.

"Is it too complicated to explain?
What is this?"

As that was below an image of the Learn portal, I assumed that is what you are asking about.

And what you write is not always easy to understand.
