Rooms only appear in section

[ashleyo5]

Hi, I have found similar threads, but no answers that match my current issue. I have a two rooms on a floor plan that are not showing up. There are other rooms on the same level that are showing just fine, so the issue can't be the View Range, which is at 4'0" cut plane. I am working in Revit 2017. Screenshot below: The yellow line shows the boundary that is not showing room tags. You can see the other rooms on the floor plan are showing up just fine. Red X's are all of the missing rooms.

The rooms are not hidden.

They are not in a workset. (No worksets in entire project)

The model isn't in collaboration, and is the central model. 

I don't have any plan regions in the entire project, let alone the area in question. 

All of the rooms are in the same phase. 

Floor Plan is in an Architectural Discipline. 

The hidden rooms are showing up just fine in schedules. 

Everything is in the same phase including:rooms, room separation lines, floor plans, etc. 

I can only see them in a section view, and they are super tiny. They are under the level I placed them at- see screenshot for reference. 

I tired deleting them and re-placing and it will only occupy the space below the cut plane.

Please help!

Thanks!

When you select a room, do the properties look like this?

[dzanta]

if you can see the rooms in section:

can you select them and adjust their top and bottom edges via the arrow grips?

can you select them and adjust the base and limit offsets in the properties palette? (rooms don't show in plan unless they are cut by the cut plane)

....i.e. cut plane set to 4'-0"...room limit offset set to 4'-0"...does not show in plan view

.........cut plane set to 4'-0"...room limit offset set to 4'-1"...does show in plan view

[ashleyo5]

When I first grab them, they have a Level of Ground Floor and an Upper Limit of Ground Floor also. The limit offset is at 10'. All of the rooms that are showing up on here are the same way. When I change it to the level above, it does not change the limits.

[Sahay_R]

Have you changed the upper limit to Level 2 (or whatever the upper level is)? 

Plan B - go into section view and manually move them by grips, per @dzanta. The plan does not see the rooms because the are below the level. If you switch to wireframe, you will see them.

[dzanta]

have you tried deleting the room objects in question from the schedule so they are completely out of the revit file...and then add the new rooms?  These objects could be corrupt.

[ashleyo5]

When I use the arrow grips, it gives me this error ^^.

I can adjust the base and limit offsets, but they do not change the room itself. It changes the volume, but it does not allow it to show up on the floor plan, and the section cut looks the same (the room is below ground level).

I adjusted the View Range to be all over the place. Below 0'-0", the other rooms disappear, but the original missing rooms go away.

[Sahay_R]

In section - try making the lower edge of the room touch the floor.

Can you share a file? Seems like there is a lot going on.

[ashleyo5]

The rooms do not show up in wireframe mode, even after hiding the floors on the Ground level.

Having the upper limit as the level above does not help either. It remains the same.

[dzanta]

can you take an adjacent room that is showing up properly in plan view and move it into the area that you are having difficulty....?

this will help determine if the room object is faulty or something else is going on.

if the adjacent room object is moved to the area in question and it shows up properly, can you then create a new room object to replace the one you moved?

Revit file attached.

Thanks!

[dzanta · Accepted solution]

your wood floor 10" ceramic tile and the floor in the Great Room are causing the issue...

deleting the floors will allow the rooms to show up

after deleting the floors...recreate it.

[ashleyo5]

This worked! Also, un-clicking Room Bounding in the properties for each of the problem floors worked.

Thanks so much! This was driving me crazy!

[dzanta]

glad to help.

Oops ! Too late!!

Came across the same problem. 

What i found is you can turn off volume calculation as this will affect the presentation of the room on your floor plans.
