Picking counter top as work plane for sink makes counter top disappear in 2d view

When I bring in a sink component, and pick the counter as a work plane (otherwise Revit puts it on the floor), the counter disappears in the 2d view. If I delete the sinks, the counter is still disappeared. (except for one line, the front edge of the backsplash - but not the side or back)

This must be some kind of bug? because if I copy and paste the counter, the new counter with no sinks is also disappeared. I need to add in the counter again as a new component for it to be visible again...

This problem happens with vessel sinks and drop in sinks from Kohler...

Hi,
thank you for the file.
From my perspective, this is also a bug in Revit. It seems that when a plumbing fixture cuts the casework, it disrupts its representation.

I suspect this may be happening because Plumbing Fixtures are a special, non-cuttable category, but to be honest, it is impossible to be 100% sure.

Regarding the fix, I updated the counter and replaced the two plan-based extrusions with one extrusion drawn in the left elevation.

This kind of silly updates often fix issues like that ;).
