Make sure you are actually in a 3D View and  not a Sheet with the 3D View.

I am still a little lost as to how to get a stand alone 3d scene could you please show me some steps as to how to achieve this. i have had a look at the help sections an still come across the same problem. I know i am missing something. Thanks

I just opened the 3d view and exported to fbx from the export menu. There
is a 3d view and a Sheet with the 3d view placed on it. You must open the
view, not the sheet.

I have recently encountered to the similar situation. I was sure to be in 3D view but the menu item was disabled. This problem disappeared when I simply restarted Revit. Coming back to the same view and now the menu was available. For your reference.

You need to install Revit Materials Library (probably was deleted before by user). FBX export can not be executed without textures from Material Library
