Revit 2023 Structural Foundations

Has anyone had any issues with foundations in revit 2023? My wall footings and column footings will not join even though they are the same thickness and at the same level.

I assume the pink lines are the foundation. Looks like the 3 foundations are joined.

They are joined but on plan there should not be a dividing line. It should all look as one pour as it has in all previous versions of revit.  Here is a sample from a 2022 revit model.

 Notice there are no lines dividing where the footer and wall footing are.

Can you check if they all have the same thickness and material type?

 All are the same thickness, same material, and all have the same top of footing.

If they are the same level, same thickness, same material then they should join.

doble check that the foundation thickness is actually the one specified. I had a similar issue when specifying 300mm thick foundation, Revit would actually draw it as 305mm. Changing it to a different value and then back to 300mm solved the issue.

Has this issue been solved? We have a similar issue except that things are working and showing up properly through 80 percent of the model, and then magically when one foundation joins to another, and all of a sudden all joins turn from the properly shown view to all of the joins now having a dividing line. Fortunately the view prints out fine, but otherwise it caused havoc when trying to see things properly on screen.

I've been experiencing this issue as well. Very annoying on screen, but as you mention at least if prints fine. slightly adjusting the view range helped resolve this temporarily, but it would soon revert back. does anyone have a solution to permanently fix this?

The only way i could get this to work was to have the Strip/Wall Foundations the same depth and same material as the Pad Foundation and a couple of times i had to change it to another thickness and back again for it to kick in - very strange but once it was working all other new elements followed suit
