levels don't appear

[Anonymous]

Hello

I'm finalizing my Revit model but I noticed that in some elevation views, not all levels appear (e.g. I have a 5 story building, but when I open my elevation view, I only see 3 of them).

The same thing happens in my floor plans. I can see all of my 4 elevation symbols, but at one floor plan, they don't appear.

Can someone help me with this?

regards

Thomas

Hey, while your levels are a 2D symbol, they are also representing a 3D flat plane of space within the model, with finite extents.

Those need to intersect your elevation view - You may need to extend the 3D extents of of your level to pass through the elevation.

Try cutting the elevation perpendicularly with a section, and you'll likely find that the levels that aren't appearing don't have the same 3D extents, dragging those out should fixed the issue! 

Same goes for sections and elevations

Hi all

Still haven't found how to make all my levels appear in the elevation view.

Also when I change my 'phasing' from 'new construction' to 'existing', my elevation symbols disappear.

It sounds like you might be having a problem matching the phases of your plans to your elevations.

Your elevation views (and hence the symbols) show a particular phase, your plans do the same thing. What this does is that makes sure that Existing Elevations are only visible in plans set to show the Existing Phase.

If you're finding a disconnect between that, you might want to check the Phase in which the Elevations (and/or plans) are set to make sure they match.
