Can't see new SketchPlane

Anonymous — Fri, 09 Oct 2020 16:29:08 GMT

Hello everyone! Trying to create a new SketchPlane with this code

using (Transaction tx = new Transaction(doc)) { tx.Start("Start"); View activeView = uidoc.ActiveGraphicalView; SketchPlane sketch = activeView.SketchPlane; XYZ direction = activeView.ViewDirection; XYZ origin = activeView.Origin; Plane plane = Plane.CreateByNormalAndOrigin(activeView.ViewDirection, activeView.Origin); sketch = SketchPlane.Create(uidoc.Document, plane); activeView.ShowActiveWorkPlane(); tx.Commit(); }

But I don't see anything in one of projects in revit, but expect that I see something like this blue square on background.

So what I do wrong that in one project I can see new SketchPlane but in another can't?

Thank you!

Please explore your model in detail before and after creating your sketch plane using RevitLookup and other database exploration tools:

Then you will see more of what is going on.

You should also make a note of the newly created sketch plane's element id so that you can examine the new element in more detail.
