Issue Regarding to Structural Framing Family and its Hidden lines.

Hallo,

Lately in one of my projects I had to model each one of the beams as Families. (See Picture 1)
They are actually all a copy of the first beam but with little changes like locations of voids for breakthrough.

The problem came when I needed to see these beams from the level above with the floor plate on them, as hidden line (Under the floor). Some of the beams showed up nicely like expected, but two stubborn ones showing up as normal lines, Even if they are located the same under the floor - all Heights, Materials, Templates are the same. in the Pictures 1 is the working one, and 2 is the Problematic. (See Picture 2)

 

I looked everywhere on the model's VG to understand what is the reason. Then I Tried to check inside the Beams Families. they are completely the same except these two options missing from the VG check boxes.
I have no idea why it happened and tried to look maybe the Family parameters are different but they are exactly the same. (See Picture 3)

Would very much appreciate if someone can help me figure out where is the problem.

Thanks!
Tal

I can guess or I can look at you file and tell you exactly what's going on. Can you post the file?

Sure, Attaching the two Beams Families here.
The main model I cannot share I'm afraid.

Without the Project, I have no way to help you.  Families are identical.

Select the beams with wrong hidden lines, cut (ctrl + x) then paste aligned in place. All clipboard tools are on the modify tab of the ribbon.
