Default Level Above is incorrect

Hey everyone, not something I've seen before, but in a file I was working on, there were some elements showing up on the 5th floor that should have only been on the 22nd floor. Upon looking into it, the View Range was showing the Level Above 5th floor as the 23rd floor.

If I change the default Level Above to 6th Floor by selecting a Level Line, everything works fine, but if I undo that, it goes back, I'm not sure if it's a glitch or what.

Any insight would be much appreciated!

Sounds like you found the solution then.  No? 

 

Likely, it has something to do with not renaming associated Levels and Views.

Go to a section showing the level 5, select it and look at the Story Above in Properties and correct the value.  It can also be done via a Level Schedule.

I was just wondering why the default is not using the actual level above, I'd just like to know what might have happened. Could you explain what you mean by renaming? As far as I know, the levels were created, then named (5th Floor, 6th Floor, etc.) so as far as I can tell, it SHOULD be acting the same as every other floor.

 

I'm not the one who set up the file though, so I'm not sure why this has happened.

It was set by the Story Above parameter for each Level.  If the value is Default then Revit chooses the next Level up, but an user can set it to any level he wants, intentionally or accidentally.  An example of when you need to manually set it to a specific level instead of the one immediate above it is when you have a bunch of levels (for landing, ceiling, etc...) between two main Floor Levels.

 

Just fix it by set it back to Default.

Sorry if I was unclear, when I set it to "Default" it uses Level 24 instead of the next level up which is Level 6. I have to manually set it to 6th for it to work. My question is why would the default be 24 and how to avoid that error. Because as far as I know, this floor was made the same as the rest and at the same time.

Looks like they placed a level above Level 5 in the first place, move it up and rename to Level 24 so that it is still being associated as the level Above of Level 5. Level 6 was placed later.

Ah, that seems possible, I didn't realize revit doesn't just read the level above. Thanks!

Does anyone know why when I change the level above to be a specific level, my veiws don't update to reflect this?

Can you elaborate?  I'm not following. What do you mean by "change the level above to be a specific level"?

Does that specific level have a floor plan view? If not, Revit won't recognize it as a Level above in View Range settings.

By level above, I mean when creating a level schedule under the column "story above" or "level above",  it normally just says Default. But I have another level from a nearby building interfering with my view range settings set to level above. So under the schedule I have manually input it to be specific levels, but these are not taking effect. And yes, the level that I want it to actually use does have a view using that floor. Thank you!
