Unable to delete face based family

Hi

I'm working on Revit LT 2019.

I made a nested face based family for a hollow clay block filler slab roof (looks like this https://sathyaconsultants.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/aug6.jpg and finished from below like this https://sathyaconsultants.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/aug13.jpg).

 

The first family is just a hollow clay block (face based).

This is nested into another family (face based) that also has a void that cuts into the face.

This is so that the block embeds and also cuts into the structural slab.

If I do this in one family, the void cuts the block.

 

This is then loaded into the project and arrayed as per requirement.

 

My issue is, when I look at this in ceiling plan, I am unable to select the individual blocks/array.

I can do this in a view, and also if I modify the view range in my normal floor plans.

But I am unable to select/delete any blocks in RCP or section.

Any idea, where the problem might be?

(Have attached screenshots from Family1 Family 2(host) and Project)

ok figured it out, stupid thing.

someone (probably me) had switched off generic models in VG, so there was nothing to select...

What was still visible in the section and ceiling plan was the slab after being cut by the voids Smiley Very Happy

just turned on generic models in VG and all was restored and selectable.

 

unable to delete my post, maybe a mod could do that.
