okay so I know I am screwing up something really simple here but I'm at a loss...

I linked a cad file (from which I need to use to trace light fixture locations) to my reflected ceiling plan.  It shows up briefly only when I am zooming in and out.  How do I make it actually visible? I've tried making the ceilings transparent but that's not the problem.

Try using Foreground vs Background in the DWG properties. Did you link it to the "current view only"...in a ceiling plan view? Try using Wireframe to see if the DWG is obscurred by other elements.

Thanks for looking at my problem!  I ended up removing the linked file, shutting down revit, restarting, and re-linking it and for some reason that fixed it... so...Glitch?
