revit 2013 None of the created elements are visible...

[granite07]

I drew a structural wall with the 'rectangle' function, but this error appears and the wall is not visible in the floor plan 'level 1' ?

"Warning: None of the created elements are visible in Floor Plan: Level 1 View. You may want to check the active view, its Parameters, and Visibility settings, as well as any Plan Regions and their settings."

Check these:

1. Constraints of Walls to Levels--Base, Offset, Top, Offset, etc.

2. Check View Range of plan view--Cut plane, view depth, etc.

3. Check if the walls are hidden ( workset, Model category turned off, Hidden in View, etc.) Use lightbulb tool to reveal hidden elements.

4. Phase--if Phases are used, are walls on wrong Phase, Phase Filter not set correctly in view

5. Design Options--if Design Options are used, are walls on Design Option and not displayed

thank you Collins, those are good suggestions.

After several trys I found the problem is the Wall type.

If I use the default generic 'Wall' or a 'Wall:Architectural' everything is fine, but the 'Wall:Structural' results in the warning. I asked a 'BIM expert' here in the lab and he said that the structural wall type requires creating a structural plan in view/create/plan_views/structural_plan

nice.

Do you mean setting the View Discipline to Structural?

[granite07]

I honestly don't know...I did not try this solution and relied on the 'BIM expert' that this is the solution. I used the 'Wall:Architectural' as a solution.

I will remove my solved tag - it wont let me remove the solved tag

Ask the BIM expert if:

1. View Discipline had to be set to Structural

2. Structural Framing Plan View Template had to be applied

[granite07]

he said "view/create/plan_views/structural_plan"

I am getting this same error when I try to add a detail line in a view. I looked through all the tabs in the VG's and I don't even see where Detail Line is an option available to be checked. Any ideas?

All lines (detail, model) are under Lines category.  Expand it to see the subcategories.
