model section view display in drawing .idw

I'm trying to do some detailing inRevit MEP 2015.  While creating detailed section elevations I've run into some problems turning on the MEP elements of the drawing.  This is a 20+ story building already completely drawn, but when trying to make a couple of MEP elevation views from certain floors, I can't seem to turn on the (already drawn) MEP equipment in section elevations.  How can I get them to be visible in the elevation view?  I need a quick resolution to this problem?  I have close to 50 elevation views I need to make and can't waste time on trying to fix this problem?  Please help?

 

Please include detailed steps to resolve this issue?

Try these:
1- Open Elevation.
2- Scroll in the properties to check whether there is a view template assigned to the section.
3- If there is you need to modify the view template properties
4- If not, go to visibility graphics (Shortcut VV). Scroll down the list and turn on or off what you need or don't.
5- You can create a template from the current modifications by going to the view tab and selecting make view template from current view.
6- You can then assign or apply the template to all your sections or elevations in one click.

If you need more assistance let me know.

Thank You, I'll give it a try as soon as I get to work!

 

One other question though,  How do you turn on the room tag / identifier in the section / elevation view?

You have to tag these separately since tags are annotations. Simply go to annotate, tag all, rooms.
