Issues with Window not showing Mullions

I am trying to figure out why, the mullions on my windows do not show up. I clicked on the window, and it shows the mullions but on the revit file they are invisible, and they are not hidden. The material is there, so that material should show up on the window.

Post simplified Revit project with problematic window. Could be a few things, visibility type or instance properties, view detail level, etc...

Looks like the Material is using Illumination.  Check the Asset to see if Self-Illumination is checked. Uncheck it if it is.

It is not self-illumination, the reason it was showing as transparency was because I selected the mullions. The materials are set as Clad- White and should be shown in that material. I am still stuck.

How about we do not play the guessing game and just look at your file?  Sound good? If so, post your file here.

you should take a single wall with one window, paste it into an empty revit project file, and upload it here so we can quickly identify the problem
