Empty but not empty file

Hello - I was modeling in a structure when I was suddenly having trouble navigating in the model. I saved and closed the file. When I opened the file again, the model space was graphically empty. None of my modeled elements was showing up in plan or in 3D. I also couldn't add any new modeled elements. Thoughts on what might have happened?

I have had this a few times and it was if I had deleted everything and only clicking undo brought it back.

Try open the File using the Audit Command on Opening

There is also an Autodesk Knowledge Base Article on this issue!

Thanks for the reply Jay. I did try this, but the model still appears empty and does not allow for new members to be modeled.

I only was able to see part of the model in one Section View, but something is not right here.

 

I would suggest you log this with the Revit Team for review, i am sure you can do this from your Autodesk Account and maybe they can see whats going on in your model.
