Elevation/Section showing items beyond

Hello,

I am currently having an issue where Revit is showing items beyond in certain elevations/sections.  When viewing the model, things will show that you shouldn't be able to see.  It seems to be displaying wireframe regardless of the visual style setting.  Once you print or go to a print preview it displays properly (hidden line).  I am including images to better explain what I am talking about.  I have checked the visual style and the views are set to "hidden line". Also, there are no symbol lines in any of the items beyond.

 

Has anyone encountered this and/or do you know of a solution?

 

This is Revit 2018.3 running on Windows 10.

 

Best regards,

Matthew

Can you recreate the View?  Or is this a fluke?  Could be a corrupted View.

I was just showing one example.  It has happened to multiple views and also occurs at times when a view is created.

Turn off CAD links for those Views.

Is it happening with one Project only (Audit the RVT), or all Projects (Repair Revit Installation)?

That seemed to work.  Any idea why?

Not sure why.  If you want to keep the linked/imported DWGs on without the glitch, create an in-place mass or generic model (or any cut-able category) and link/import the DWGs in it.

Okay.  I usually do that.  Don't understand why it would impact something that it isn't even visible in.

I just had this issue. 

 

There is something wrong with your linked cad file or imported cad file.

It may be too large ( distance from the origin point ) for Revit to "understand". 

This corrupted my section in a similar way. 

 

Simply go in and clean your imported files.
