Odd 3d behavior

[Anonymous]

I have recently started a new project of construction drawings for a new build apartment scheme. Everything was working fine until i got up to the roof level and started modelling a dormer. Now the 3d view no longer highlights objects that i am hovering over and weird lines have appeared everywhere. The floor plans and elevations are still fine though. I have tried recreating the 3d view, and opening it on a different PC to no avail.

Below is a screenshot with my poorly drawn red circles showing the errors.

Any ideas anyone?

Use your Join Geometry Tool.  

...You mean you can't select them? Check to see if you have selection restrictions.

Did you link any DWG files in recently?

There are a few DWGs that have been linked into the floor plans since i started the project. Could this be the cause? Everything was fine until i started working on the dormers / roof.

Everything is already joined. I can select things, but nothing is highlighted when i hover over until i actually click it which isnt normal behaviour .

Ah dormers.  Edit the sketch of the dormers and make sure all the corners are trimmed cleanly.

@ToanDN: did you mess with it? I think Revit is spazzing out over all the Wall Profile Editing with Attaching going on in the Project, as well as the placement of Windows those Profile Edited Walls.

I didn't see any file attached.  Did he send it to you directly?

Only way i found to fix it was to create a new project, copy everything from the broken model (levels and all) into the new project and recreate all of my views. Not ideal and a bit of a setback, but at least everything is working fine now.
