Revit 2012 :
I have a topo file linked to the main building file.
I am trying to render a 3d exterior view of the building (new construction ).
I see the linked topography in black lines in my elevations.but not in the 3d view.
The question/ problem unsolved is how to get the site/ ground to be visible as per the linked topography in the 3d view of the main file . All I see is the building in the air , with a very light greyed site in a block form. I would like to see the site in earth: soil material for me to render the exterior view.
Linked file: Topography
Main File: ArchitecturalBuilding
Hello - can you post an image? And what is the discipline of the view set to?
LD
When the 3d view window is active,
click on vv/ vg.
In the linked file tab,
go and make sure the linked file boxes are unchecked on
overlay and halftone.
You do not want them to be check
Click ok/ apply
See if it worked.
you may also prefer to check the visibility of topography/site in native file's visibility graphics and also in the Revit Links properties.
