I can’t even directly cut through the object it just shows the whole object. I’m using 2023 Revit &amp; FormIt. Any suggestions? It works with any other CAD import with no issues.</P> Wed, 22 Mar 2023 18:07:52 GMT pdawkinsEP7FZ 2023-03-22T18:07:52Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-architecture-forum/formit-axm-to-revit-cross-sections-not-working-withen-revit/m-p/11840033#M52251 <P>when I place or link a Formit object into Revit the object shows up in all cross sections regardless of which direction they are placed.

The problem is that it does not show the neccessary detail in plan view as shown below. The one on the left shows all the needed detail but cross sections do not work correctly.
