Hi all,
I just upgraded from Revit 2014 to 2017 and when I loaded my file it asked if I wanted to upgrade the file to 2017 to which I said yes.
I'm now having an issue where the glass in 3d view is 'ghosting' or showing through the building from every angle. I've attached a screenshot to illustrate. I just checked my driver and was told it was up to date. Any idea what's causing this?
Many thanks

You may try to turn off hardware accelleration or use the earlier graphic driver.
I know exactly what you are experiencing. Happens to me from time to time when Revit, for some unexplained reason, rolls back my graphics card driver. You probably have a warning under Options:Graphics too. To resolve, I have to close out of Revit and update (reinstall) my driver through Window's Device Manager.
p.s. I notice this is always preceded by losing view cube control. It completely locks up and the only way to gain control back is to right-click on the VC and press "Go Home". Weird.
Thanks for the reply everyone. After trying various options mentioned above a had temporary luck but it seemed to come back again. I've since done a factory reset of my laptop (was planning on doing one anyway) and re-installed Revit 2018.
First thing I did was start a new project to experiment if it occurred on that instead of upgrading a file from Revit 2014 which I had been previously using.
Well the glass appeared through the walls on that so I turned the hardware accelerator off and started over. This time it worked. I closed the program and reopened multiple times with both the new experiment project and my original file I had upgraded from 2014 and it seems to be ok for now. I have left the hardware accelerator off.
Can anyone tell me what the accelerator does? Is leaving it off going to degregate the performance of Revit?
Cheers

Just another update for anyone trying to sort this out in future. I just had the glass start appearing through all of the walls in 3d view again. After much trial and error and research this solution fixed it:
3D View>Graphic Display>Edit>Shadows>"Check" Show Ambient Shadows>OK
This has nothing to do with ambient shadows, and the ambient shadows make the drawing look crappy.
I had the same issue in Revit2022 and I had to switch the rendering quality to "Best" under "Rendering Settings". Hope that works for you too!

You don't need to keep posting this in 5+ year old threads...
