Hi, [Just starting out with Revit] When I try to add a door or window to a simple wall (not a curtain wall) I can't select the wall the circle with the line through if doed not dissapear. any idea as to what I've done?
The symbol you are seeing is an indicator that Revit ain't finding a host --- which is odd if you are trying to place a door on a wall. My guess is that the door isn't actually a "wall hosted" family. Perhaps, it's a faced-based famly instead? Anyways, check your option bar when placing and see if you have a host option to choose from. Betcha that you have two hosting options to select from: Work Plane and Face --- or some facsimile thereof.
-Go to a Floor Plan View--say Level 1. Then, go to Architecture Tab>Work Plane>Set>Specify a new Work Plane>
Name> Level 1. Then, go to Window>place window.
-If it does not work now, check the View Range of the Plan View--also check "default sill height" of the window family.
-Could be a cut plane issue. Try placing the window in a Ceiling Plan, or a 3D View. Any luck?
-Check Phasing. , i.e. Existing, New Construction, etc.
-In the Plan View--Make sure the View's Phase is set to New Construction, set Phase Filter to Show All, Show Complete, or Show Previous and New. Try placing he Window.
-Also, check and see what Phase the walls are on.
-If your project has Worksets enabled, make sure you are placing the Window with the correct Workset set to current.
-Also, see if you have any Design Options set up--which can also cause odd things to happen.
