Linked Models are not displayed in Design Options

[cemberger]

Baffing issue for us:

We have a "core & shell" model linked into a "fit-out" model.  We are working with design options in the "fit-out" model with different design options.

1. In a 3D axo view and working in the main model, we can see the linked "core & shell" file.

2. In the same 3D axo view and working in the primary design option, we can see the linked "core & shell" file.

3. In the same 3D axo view and working in any of the other design option, we CANNOT see the linked "core & shell" file.

The visibility & graphics settings have not been changed.  The worksets settings have not been changed.  We have been unable to overcome this issue.  We are simply flippiing between different design options and the linked model disappears.

Any thoughts.

This statement is indicating that the Link itself was placed or otherwise belongs to the primary Design Option, whereas it should belong to the Main Model so it will display in all Design Options.

If you have a Design Option within a Linked Revit file, you can change the display for the link though Visibility/Graphics Overrides » Revit Links » Display Settings (for the appropriate link) » Set the "Custom" option under the Basics tab » then to the Design Options tab.

We did inadvertently place the revit link in a design option...............
