Ceiling Plan not showing up

elky853 — Mon, 08 Mar 2021 19:45:17 GMT

Hi all, I'm having an issue creating a Reflected Ceiling Plan in Revit (Revit 2021 Student Version). I created the floor plans for that project and even added a ceiling (in floor plan view) but when I click on Level 1 ceiling plan in the Project Browser nothing shows up. I checked my view range settings, visibility graphics, and anything else I thought might cause the issue. What could be causing this issue? Thank you

Check your view range settings.

Thanks for your reply. I checked the View Range settings and it looks fine. Please see the attached screenshot.

Can you check the 3d view and see if ceiling is in your 3d object? Also check and see what phase your ceiling plan is set to.

Bet you one dollar that one of these 33 applies:

The phase was previously set to 'project completion' and I changed it to existing and it's finally showing up now!! Thanks so much for your help, syman!

I had the same issue-result as OP, but @barthbradley 's link reminded me I had a filter for the linked ceiling set up ages ago. Just saying thank you as a side note.

Been checking everywhere to find a solution to this problem, you're the only one to mention changing the phase. Mine was in Project Completion, had no idea. I was going crazy trying out every View Range and Underlay setting alongside checking Visibility that had everything checked, those seemed to be the only solutions anyone could come up with. I don't understand why Revit would make these plans set to different Phases, I certainly didn't change them.
