Walls partially disappear when zooming in

Hello,

Does anyone know why the walls would disappear when zooming in? Making it hard to draw because I can't see where I've already drawn when zoomed in.

 

EDIT: occuring in level 2 of attached file

Set your View Phase Filter to Show Complete.

Thank you for the reply. This still is having the same effect after changing the phase filter.

Use Hidden Line mode. 

 

...just checked.  Your View Visual Style is indeed set to Wireframe.  Set it to Hidden Line.  If that doesn't work for you, then I suspect the Link is affecting the display. Don't know for sure though because I don't have the Link.

Do you mean the CAD Import's solid hatch covering the Revit walls?  I don't experience the same thing as you said, but you can do one of the few of things in order to see both Revit walls and CAD solid hatch:

 

- disable hardware accelerations

- override the CAD import to have some transparency, keep the view as wireframe as you have it

- set the view to Hidden and override walls category to have some transparency

- when link the DWG, tick the box Current View Only, then you can set the DWG to Background or Foreground

You're talking about this; correct?

I am able to see the CAD Import with no issues. The Revit walls I am drawing over top of the CAD import are the ones that keep seeming to glitch. I did override the walls category in view to halftone and show pink. Hardware acceleration is disabled in my settings.

Yes. Correct, they show up missing sections when zooming in/out and moving around.

This fixed my error. Thank you so much. I'm still learning so I keep forgetting simple things like this.
