Parts in Revit 2017

[Anonymous]

Hi!

I'm using the function parts in revit, to calculate amounts of different types of walls.

I've saved a copy of my model, and used the function create parts for the walls. When I do this, there's a wall with base in ground floor and top in 5th floor, which disappears from 1st to 5th floor. It's still there on the ground floor, see pictures.

I have a copy of the model from before I joined the walls and the floor, and at this point the whole wall is still there. See picture.

Anyone who can help me with this problem?

Try to check the Parts Visibility in the properties..

Did you accidentally change the Phasing of the Part(s)?

Thank you, but it's visible. All the other walls showing is parts as well. 

When I'm in a section and select "Show Parts" the wall disappear.

I'm not sure how you change the phasing. But I've made a copy of the original model, selected all the walls and "create parts". I've done this at least 5 times now, but this one wall disappears every time - after I joined the walls and the floor.

I checked now, and they are in the same phase.

@Anonymous , 

Do you have accidentally check the excluded ?

Nope, the box is unchecked. Well, I don't see the wall, so it's not possible to check if it's checked or not. But the wall does not behave as it would if it was excluded. It's just gone.

I think I'll just go back to the earlier model, from before I joined wall and floor. In this model all the walls are there. So I'm pretty sure something happens when joining. I've tried to unjoin and join again multiple times, with no luck - the wall is still gone.

Checklist: 33 steps to being able to 'find stuff'

1. The object or category is temporarily hidden
2. The object or category is hidden in the view
3. The object is being obscured by another element
4. The object's category or subcategory is hidden in the view
5. The object is outside the view's view range
6. The view's far clip depth is not sufficient to show the object
7. The object resides on a work set that is not loaded within the project
8. The object resides on a work set that is not visible in the view
9. The object resides on a work set that is not loaded in a linked file
10. The object resides on a work set that is not visible in a linked file
11. The object resides within a group (detail model) and it has been excluded from the group
12. The object is part of a design option that is not visible in the view
13. The object is part of a linked file that is not visible in the view
14. The object has one or more of its edges overridden to display as ''
15. The object is a family and none of its geometry is set to be visible in the view type
16. The object is a family and none of its geometry is set to be visible at the view's detail level
17. The object is set to not be visible at the category's detail level
18. The element has been placed outside the view's crop region (visible extents)
19. The element is an annotation object and does not reside entirely within the annotation crop region
20. The object's phase settings or the view's phase settings prevent the object from displaying in the view
21. The view's discipline is prohibiting the visibility of the object
22. The object is affected by a filter applied to the view
23. The object is subject to an element override, set to background color
24. The object is subject to a category override, set to background color
25. The object style is set to background color
26. The object is constrained to a scope boxes that is not visible in the view
27. The extents of the object itself don't permit it to be seen
28. The object is a mass, and 'Show Mass' is turned off
29. The object's host view has been deleted (area boundaries)
30. The view's scale is prohibiting the object's visibility
31. The object is a linked instance with coordinates too great for Revit to handle
32. The user has incorrectly identified the link instance to which the element belongs
33. The object is in a link that is not in its correct position
34. Wall is subsumed by automatically-embedded curtain wall
35. Something is really far away from the middle of the project and when the view is zoomed to fit, everything disappears
36. Element is white and its edges coincide with other objects. E.g., GWB ceiling in RCP.

Thank you!

I've gone through these steps now. Since parts of the wall is there (on the ground floor), many of these steps are irrelevant. It's gone in all the views when I select "show parts", but the whole wall is there when I select "show original".
