Floor not visible in 3D view

Anonymous — Thu, 29 Sep 2016 15:22:57 GMT

I created a building of 3 stories on Revit 2015, the thing is the all the floors drawn on either of the floors are visible and editable in plan views, but only the ground and top floor component are visible in the 3D view, yet all floors are editable in the 3D view!!!

P.S. the floors are all of the same type!

Screenshot 01: first floor view with the floor selected

Screenshot 02: second floor view with the floor selected

Screenshot 03: 3D view with the ground and top floor elements visible and the other floor not

Didi you:

1- Check element phase and filter?

2- If floor item is marked in the VG?

3- By accident hide the element or category?

@Anonymous

1- I am not sure how to check the elements' phase and filter, but I selected the invisible floors in the plan view and in properties it is written "New Construction" as the rest of the elements... please tell me if I am doing it wrong

2- Yes, the floor is marked in the VG

3- I re-checked, no the "Temporary Hide/Isolate" is reset

@ennujozlagam I picked the bulb icon... the floor becomes visible but not as a hidden element... hidden elements should be highlighted in cyan when the bulb is picked!

Hello go to properties and check if it is set in a view template. Thanks

Hi Assem,

There is still a thing you haven't checked.

In the V/G dialog box, go to the filters tab.

The might be one that disables the visibility of your floors.

But actually I thing they are just hidden in the view. You do not see them in pink just because the edges are hidden by the surrounding walls.

Try both and i Hope it is of help!

Cheers,

François

@FGPerraudin I never did hide them... but they were just hidden in the view yes! Thank you 😄

I picked the bulb, selected the floors, right click, and unhide in views

I'm having the exact same problem: a three-store building, second floor appears in floor plan but not in 3d view. The difference is when I activate the light bulb for hidden elements, it still doesn't show. These are the screenshots, the fist one is when i isolate the floor category.

Select the floor on the floor plan and check its phasing.
