2. [Build Mode Questions](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/build-mode-questions?hsLang=en-us)
# How do you replace imported 'proxy' objects with Library objects?
## **1. Making a Proxy object**
The *Place item on nodes* function lets you place objects of your choice at the same positions as imported *proxy objects* from your 3D/CAD software.
- Each *proxy object* should be a separate object, for example, simple duplicated boxes.
- Make sure that a single material is assigned to all faces of the *proxy* *objects*.
- The function works with *Revit*, *SketchUp*, *ArchiCAD*, *AutoCAD*, *AllPlan*, *3ds Max*, *Vectorworks,* and *Rhino*.
- *Spotlights* and *Area Lights* are rotated by 90 degrees by default in Lumion (so they are pointing downwards). When wanting to replace with lights, you need to compensate for that by rotating your *proxy object* 90 degrees in the opposite direction in your 3D/CAD software before exporting the *proxy objects*. This might also be the case with other *Library Objects*.
See the steps and export requirements for each of these applications in section 4 below.
## **2. Newly placed Objects on Nodes**
### **2.1: Lumion 9.0 and newer**
After importing a model with *proxy* objects and placing it in your *Scene*, use the *Place item on nodes* function to place an object of your choice on each of the imported *proxy* objects.
- The function is available in the *Object Options* panel for *Imported Models*.
- If a Windows *Open File* window pops up when you click on the *Place item on nodes* button, select the *Imported Model* file with the *proxy* objects, and click on the *Open* button.
- Please note that when you use the *Place item on node* function in *Lumion* after importing a model file, it will place additional objects at the *Object Icon* of the model. Simply delete those objects.
### **2.2: Lumion 8.5 and older**
After importing a model with *proxy* objects and placing it in your *Scene*, use the *Place item on nodes* function to place a tree/plant or light of your choice on each of the imported *proxy* objects.
- The *Place item on nodes* function is available in the *Extra* menu in the *Context Menu* for *Imported Models*.
- If a Windows *Open File* window pops up when you click on the *Place item on nodes* option, select the *Imported Model* file with the *proxy* objects, and click on the *Open* button.
- Please note that when you use the *Place item on node* function in *Lumion* after importing a model file, it will place additional objects at the *Object Icon* of the model. Simply delete those objects.
## **3. How to make changes to previously placed Objects on Nodes**
After using the *Placing Objects on Nodes* feature the *proxy object* will be removed from the *Build Mode* viewport. They will remain in the Lumion *Imported Models Library.*
If you need to make use of the nodes again in order to modify or change the placed objects you need to go through these steps:
### **3.1: Place the models:**
Go to your Lumion *Imported Models Library,* in *Build Mode,* and to place them again, select *Imported Models* and then *Place.*
### **3.2: Align your models:**
In order to align them with your main model you can place the *Nodes* manually by using the *Move* commands.
Alternatively, with the main model selected in the top right corner use the *Lock Object and Make it unselectable* feature.
This will prevent the main model from moving.
With the main model and *Nodes* selected, click on *Align Positions.*
This will bring the nodes in line with the main model.
### **3.3: Replace:**
To replace the *Nodes* with new *Objects*, deselect the main model and select the *Place Object on Nodes.*
### **3.4: Group:**
**3.4.1:** For ease of use it is recommended to group the new objects*.* This can be done by selecting an object and again under *Advanced Options,* clicking on *Select All Identical Objects.*
**3.4.2:** With the objects selected, use the *Add Current Selection to a Group* feature.
Please also refer to our *Tutorial Video* below for a more in-depth view of the *Node* placement and replacement:
- **Lumion Tutorial:** [Lumion 9: Nodes & Node Replacement](https://support.lumion.com/video-tutorials/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360018681653.json?hsLang=en-us)
## **4. 3D Modelling Guidelines**
## **4.1: Guidelines for** ***Revit***
**4.1.1:** Install the *Lumion LiveSync for Revit* plug-in if you are using *Revit* 2015 or newer:
- **Knowledge Base:** [Download Lumion LiveSync for Revit](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360007538494.json?hsLang=en-us)
**4.1.2:** In a *3D View*, place some simple objects, e.g. columns or boxes (non-extruded shapes), to represent the *proxy* objects. Make sure that a single material is assigned to the objects.
**4.1.3:** Tick the *Export nodes* button in the *Export as Collada* file settings before exporting a .DAE file to Lumion:
**4.1.4:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.2: Guidelines for *SketchUp***
**4.2.1:** Create a box for use as a *proxy object*. Make sure that you have only assigned a single material to all faces of the object.
**4.2.2:** Right-click on the box and select *Make component*.
**4.2.3:** Duplicate the box as many times as you want. Do not group the duplicates.
**4.2.4: *Lumion* 9.0 and newer versions:**
Save the components to a separate .SKP file.
**4.2.5: *Lumion* 8.5 and older versions:**
Select *File* -\> *Export* -\> *3D Model*, choose *Collada file (\*.DAE)*, click on *Options* and make sure that *Preserve Component Hierarchies* is ticked before exporting the .DAE file.
**4.2.6:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.3: Guidelines for** ***ArchiCAD***
**4.3.1: *ArchiCAD* 21 or newer:** Install the *Lumion* plug-in for *ArchiCAD*:
- **Knowledge Base:** [Download *Lumion LiveSync for ArchiCAD*](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360007539434.json?hsLang=en-us)
**4.3.2:** Export the *proxy objects* to .DAE format with the *Export nodes* tickbox ticked:
**4.3.3: ArchiCAD 20 and older:** Export the *proxy objects* to .3DS format with the default export settings:
*File* -\> *Save as...* -\> .3DS format
**4.3.4:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.4: Guidelines for** ***Autodesk AutoCAD***
**4.4.1: Lumion 8.5 and newer:** The most reliable way to export *proxy objects* is to have *block references* in the places where *Nodes* should be exported. To do so, create a (*proxy*) box and turn it into a *block reference* by typing the command *Block*. Once that is done, you can copy and paste the box as many times as you need. Then install *Lumion LiveSync for Autodesk AutoCAD* and export the *proxy objects* via the Collada .DAE export method with 'Export Nodes' turned on in the export settings of the plug-in:
- **Download Link:** [Download Lumion LiveSync for *Autodesk AutoCAD*](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360041424634.json?hsLang=en-us)
**4.4.2: Lumion 8.3 and older:** Make sure that your *proxy objects* are *Mass Elements*, not *3D Solids*, and then save the *proxy objects* to .DWG format. Then quit *Lumion* and install the *DWG plug-in* for *Lumion*:
- **Download Link:** [Download the Lumion DWG plug-in](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360007649393.json?hsLang=en-us)
**4.4.3:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.5: Guidelines for *Rhino***
**4.5.1:** Assign a *Block Definition* to a cube:
*Edit* -\> *Blocks* -\> *Create Block Definition*
Duplicate the *Block Definition* objects as desired in the *Rhino* model.
**4.5.2: Rhino 6.10 and newer:** Install the *Lumion* plug-in for *Rhino*:
- **Knowledge Base:** [Download *Lumion LiveSync for Rhino*](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360010160093.json?hsLang=en-us)
Export the *proxy objects* to .DAE format with the *Export nodes* tickbox ticked:
**4.5.3: Rhino 5:** Follow these instructions to export the model to .DAE format:
- **Knowledge Base:** [Model import guidelines for Rhino](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360007790353.json?hsLang=en-us)
**4.5.4:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.6: Guidelines for *Vectorworks***
**4.6.1: Vectorworks 2019 SP3 or newer:** Install the *Lumion* plug-in for *Vectorworks*:

**4.6.2:** Create cones to use as proxy objects.
**4.6.3:** Export the *proxy objects* to .DAE format with the plug-in.
**4.6.4:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.7: Guidelines for** ***3ds Max***
**4.7.1:** Export the *proxy objects* to .3DS format with the default export settings.
**4.7.2:** Follow step 2.1 or 2.2 above.
## **4.8: Guidelines for** ***AllPlan***
**4.8.1:** Export the *AllPlan* *proxy* objects to .SKP (*SketchUp*) format:
- **Knowledge Base:** [Model import guidelines for Allplan](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360007794193.json?hsLang=en-us)
**4.8.2:** Then open the .SKP file in *SketchUp* and follow the instructions in section 3 above.
## **4.9: Guidelines for *BricsCAD***
**4.9.1: Lumion 8.5 and newer:** The most reliable way to export *proxy objects* is to have *block references* in the places where *Nodes* should be exported, not raw geometry. To do so, create a (*proxy*) box and turn it into a *block reference* by typing the command *Block*. In the pop-up window, select '*Convert to block'.*
Once that is done, you can copy and paste the box as many times as you need. Then install *Lumion LiveSync for BricsCAD* and export the *proxy objects* via the Collada .DAE export method with 'Export Nodes' turned on in the export settings of the plug-in:
- **Download Link:** [Download Lumion LiveSync for BricsCAD](https://support.lumion.com/knowledge-base/api/v2/help_center/en-us/articles/360017006720.json?hsLang=en-us)
