Can't cut section in the floor of new Revit Model

I built a new MEP Model.   I have linked the MEP template, Archi model and Structural model.   Then I start to build the Fan.  

The question is that I can't cut the section on the floor plan.  

The warning is as follows.  

how can I do?

Hi, Did you checked the Discipline of the Floor Plan Properties. Changing to Coordination may help. Daniel Kazado

There are a couple dozen reasons why that message will pop up in Revit. Here are a few of them:

1.Is the correct Workset being used?
2.Is the view range set correctly to see the particular element?
3.Is the object hosted on an incorrect surface like a floor instead of a ceiling?
4.Is there a filter applied to the view that is causing the element to be hidden?
5.Is the detail level of the view set correctly? Some families are set not to show at Coarse.
6.Try using the “Reveal Hidden Elements” tool in the view control bar.
7.Is there a plan region in the view?
8.Is the view “Discipline” set correctly?
9.Is the element in the correct phase and is an appropriate phase filter set in the view to make it visible?
10.Is the element part of a design option and perhaps that isn’t the current option for that particular view?

Thank you all.

 

The section has been shown after I select the section box in the Annotation Categories.

I am just wondering if there are good ways to immediately delete the cut section which is invisiable in the view.

 

It is pretty hard to find inappropreate sections after I get warnings and they already settled in somewhere other views.... 

The method No.6 which you mentioned will be only applied to the case I set invisible to the section on the V/G setting

as far as I tested.

 

I would appreciate if you give me further advices!!

 

Thank you in advance!!!
