Hiding steel connections below

chriskD6WP2 — Thu, 04 Feb 2021 15:31:18 GMT

I want to hide the anchor bolts circled in the attached screenshot. This was an automatic feature in 2019 but since migrating to 2021, this has been an issue. I have tried Remove Hidden Lines with no luck. Even tried changing the View Range, no luck. Could I have a problem with the family?

I attached the project if this helps find a solution.

HELLO,

Go to VG under Structural connection uncheck anchors & holes and you be fine.

I don't want to hide all the anchors or holes just the ones I circled in the screenshot. When I modeled this in 2019, this didn't happen. This is why I'm wondering if there is something wrong with one of the families.

Here is a test project. One created in 2019 and the other in 2021. If you look at the plan views between the two, you will see how visually different they appear. I have looked through many settings but I can't seem to find a difference. I'm sure I'm missing something because AutoDesk wouldn't make a newer version of Revit more difficult to use, right? 😉

VG > Model Categories > Structural Connections
uncheck <Hidden Lines>

you can do this in a View template or individually per view.

Once again, I knew it had to be something simple. Thank you!
