Symbols in paperspace "falling through" the viewport

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

so I am trying to put some symbols on my drawing in the paperspace, arrows and fire safety symbols and stuff like that. This usually works great but not with this particular drawing - when I put symbols they kind of fall through under the floor plan which is in my modell space. Does anyone have any idea why this could be happening? I tried making a completely new viewport but this didnt work.

It sounds like the viewport is active but without an example, it's just a guess.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

@Anonymous ,

 

Like @RobDraw mentioned, you may be working within the viewport.

Check the correct workspace (Paper Space) is active and not in the viewport - see image below:

Hi,

 

>> they kind of fall through under the floor plan which is

>> in my modell space

I guess this switch is set incorrect, please, inside the plot-dialog, make sure the checkbox for "Plot paperspace last" is activated:

@Anonymous ,

 

I think you mean if the "issue got solved??", and it has yet to receive a solution check, so no.

Also, make sure you use the quote symbol when quoting others - see image below.
