Concrete material pattern not visible in plan

Hi all. Our concrete material has a pattern which we only want to show in RCPs (which have been done for awhile) and in slab plans (which I'm working on now), but not in any floor plans. A while back I modified our floor plan view templates to control this, by unchecking Floor/Projection/Patterns. And I've created a ground floor slab plan which works fine (most of the slabs are building pads made of the same material). But now when I create our 2nd floor slab plan, I can't get the concrete material pattern to show up. The adjacent paver material shows up just fine (see screenshot), so it can't be the view template setting (and I've quadruple checked this, and attached a screenshot). I've also confirmed that the slab graphics are not overridden by view. What else could be causing this? TIA for any help.

Sounds like there's another override acting on the floor that has hierarchy - perhaps a Phase Filter Graphic Override. Dunno without examining the RVT.

Post the file here if you want help resolving.

Thanks. I don't think the client would like if I posted the .rvt. We don't use phases--everything is new construction--so that can't be it. I will continue to search for the culprit.

Floor, structural slabs, and building pads are different categories altogether.  You say you are using building pads but your VG show overrides for Floors.

I cut and pasted the three floors at this level into a new project and the pattern issue remains, so here it is. Two of the three floors display correctly, and one is made of the same concrete material. I'd be grateful for any suggestions. TIA.

Pads at the ground floor, floors at the 2nd where this issue exists.

Whether you're using Phases or not, every model element has a Phase Created and Phase Demolished - and every View has a Phase and Phase Filter.

Those are New Construction and None. Anyway, hopefully you can look at the attached file and figure it out.

Oh! Duh. That's it. Why any of our staff members would paint a floor I can't imagine. Thanks!
