Railing not showing in 3D Model

ELEVATE — Sat, 08 Mar 2025 15:50:29 GMT

I am perplexed!!!

When I insert railings into 2d plan they show, but in 3d they do not show. Model view options all railing components are checked. I tried simplified, full detail setting as well. All layers on. Filter and cut objects, railings are checked. Every setting I've looked at the railings are not turned off. Any help would be Greatly appreciated. Thankyou

Operating system used: Windows 23H2

So if you select the railing in plan and then right click and 'show in 3D', do you see it then?

Is there any chance that you are using different view settings between 2d and 3d that might made the railings not visible (layer off for example)

Or having the railings disabled in the "3d filter and cut elements "options????

Could you try changing the railing’s renovation status, from new to demo and back again for example. Sometimes I have the same issue with stairs, they show in plan but not in elevation. Changing the Reno status back and forth solves it.

Are your renovation filters set to show all?

Does the same happen if you start a new file based on the default Graphisoft template (not your template)?
