Try using a Scope Box and associate all Levels with it. (works well for Grids too.)

Also check "Propogate Extents" and right click on Level which is not showing and click "Maximize 3D Extents".

i tried the scope box with no success i believe it is somthing to do with the direction of the level not going the full way around the building for some reason

In order to see a level or a grid in a view...the extents of that datum element must cross the plane of that view.

I did a quick video on what I mean.

also check 3D and 2D extents.

The Levels are not Hidden in View, right? Or on the wrong Workset, which might be hidden?
