Revizto 5 - Coordinate search
Please consider adding a new feature to Revizto 5– a coordinate search function. For instance, we often encounter challenges when trying to locate positions on a BIM model using coordinates from construction drawings in 2D. This new feature would greatly assist in addressing this issue.

Not sure if this is what Ivan would be going for, but it would be especially useful to have a simple "Report Coordinates" tool like Revit or a tooltip in the bottom right, reporting x, y, z, similar to Google Maps and other software.
For example, we will always have a Grids and Levels file sent to trades to use as a reference for aligning models. Sometimes, especially for those who can't just "Aquire Shared Coordinates" it would be nice to hop into a model, pick two points and align to that in order to achieve alignment. Yes, we can always use other software to display those two points, but where Revizto is already based off coordinates, it would be handy to be able to report them, especially for layout and civil teams to participate more heavily in coordination.

Oh gosh. That's amazing! Learning new things every day. Every time I've used the elevation tool I just look at what is displaying on the 3D rather than the x,y,z values. Didn't even realize it displayed x,y,z like the other tools. I'll definitely being sharing this out. Thanks, Laura!
Is there a way to snap it to gridlines like the "snapping" measurement tool? I found a workaround of first snapping with the "Snapping" tool and then switching, but I can't snap directly with the elevation tool.

Hi Laura, I have observed the 'Elevation' function in measurements, which successfully provides the x, y, and z coordinates.
However, I have a feature request for the reverse scenario: when I obtain coordinates (x, y, z) from a 2D construction drawing, it would be incredibly beneficial if there were an input box available for me to enter these coordinates and allocate the corresponding position within the Revizto model element.
Thanks

Kaden Kartchner I just found a workaround for this today, use the snapping measurement, which can snap to gridlines, place both the extremities to the same spot, than switch to the elevation measurement. The marker will be at the crossing of the gridlines and the coordinates will be shown
Hope this helps!
