What are your visibility/graphic settings on the Imported Categories tab?  Did you link it with "Current view only" checked or unchecked?  Are the extents of the CAD file more than 2 miles from the origin?  Did you link it center-to-center, origin-to-origin, etc?  Did you double-check that the view wasn't cropped?

 

Need more info.

thanks for your advice.

 

I figured it out that there was a problem in setting the options in visibilty setting.

 

I think the  the CAD was far from the origin

 

but I still can understand the options well.

 

how could I check the options if I want to work the revit

 

in the position of my CAD file?
