Why my grid disappear after adding some level above and below

even though the gridlines have crossed each other on elevation

How to fix them?

The Fist condition:

The 2nd condition after adding level :

You need to make sure your Grid and level intersects, pls go through each elevation (East/West, North south elevations) and drag your grids all the way up so it goes beyond top level , do same for bottom if you added any levels after drawing Grid. make sure you get 3d extent up not 2d extent, you may hit accidentally and make 3d Grid extent to become 2d.

Hope this helps.

Hi @walidinJKACC. Your axes are not perpendicular to any of the sections or elevations. Create 3 sections perpendicular to the axes 4, 5 and 6 and slide their lower end below the ground level. After that, you will be able to see them on the plan.

Best Workflow is to create all your levels first then create your grids.

However, in your case, you have two problems, grids don't show in sections and elevations, the grids will show only in views perpendicular to them.

After you create the perpendicular view, drag the grids to intersect with the new levels in order to be seen on them.

One thing that I do at the beginning of a project and one I have all my "datum's" (grids and levels) set and put in even if just preliminary is do a "maximize 3d extents" on them. And that will shoot them out to the extents of the 3d model. All you do is select the Datum or Datums (grid or level) right click and select "maximize 3D extents". Down side once again, is if they are not perpendicular to the cut view they will not show up.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
