    "not showing in my 1st to 2nd last floor plan"

     

    You probably need to set the "view range" for those levels.

    • It is possible that when you made the Insert dwg> import CAD you checked the option Curent View Only 
    • In the levels in which you don't see the imported dwg look if in Properties > Visibility/Graphics Overrides > Imported Categories > Visibility , the inserted dwg object  is checked . It happend to me that an inserted dwg had also some hidden layers. Control the layers visibility
    • Check the View Range from Properties
