Hidden Surfaces of the Slab

Tazo Kikoria — Mon, 14 Apr 2025 21:16:06 GMT

Hi there

I have the bugged Slab Tool in my ARCHICAD file:

When I navigate at it in 3D there are invisible parts on it. I unlocked every layer, switched from one renovation filter to another but no connection and no other construction element that could cover and override it. When I move the whole structure meters away from the original location, it starts to get visible. How can I solve this issue?

Operating system used: Windows

Are some elements with stronger materials cutting away the slab?

Yes! That was the case. The walls had stronger material and I increased the priority of the material of the slab.

Thank you!

If moving it away fixes the problem, that implies that there is something else there that is trimming the slab away.

Turn all layers on and make sure they are not set to wire frame, and make sure renovation filter is set to show all - no hidden status.

It looks like you might have a lot of Solid Element Operations happening?

It is impossible to tell from an image.

Maybe something there is interfering?
