section cut

I'm not sure what happened but has this happened to anybody else?  I attached a pdf showing an interior elevation.  I synced before lunch and everything was good.  After lunch this happened.  I was placing section cuts that referenced other views and now the section cut heads will not show up.  I cycled through the head and tail but nothing.  The tails are ok but not the section cut heads.

 

Any idea how to fix that or what happened.  And all other section cuts that I placed are ok, just the ones that reference other views.  I tried deleting and placing again, but same thing happens.

Select the Section Line, then: Properties >Edit Type>Type Properties >Type Parameters >Graphics >Section Tag - click on Value - Section Head - Filled, Section Tail - Filled  > new window opens- Graphics > Section Head (or/and Tail..) -click on Value...(I bet is none)...replace with M_Section Head-Filled....OK...Apply...OK ...

Someone else must have accidentally edited the family, or loaded in a view from another project with that setting for the detail head/tail, and the one in your current project was overridden (not sure this is even possible, just wanted to throw it out there).
